While our daughters were playing, Isabelle age 4, found a spider in her room. She and Aurora age 2 went through great lengths to stalk this spiders every move. It finally found its way into a small hole in the corner. It entertained them for hours watching for the return of the now safe and smart spider. It no doubt came out while they were sleeping and high tailed it out of here. The experience left me with an interesting art thought. Mixed media created with ripped paper gesso canvas, watercolor paint, acrylic paint, oil pastels, gel pen and India ink.

Lovely story and wonderful illustration, love that fluorescent spider! <3
Charming! What a great story, too. Spiders are the original weavers of stories in folk tales. Love this one's googly eyes.
Some how you've made a spider very cute even though I am not a fan of them!! Adorable story I could visualize the girls waiting!! Good job!!
