The following illustrations are part of my first Children's Book Illustration class. The topic was fairy-tales and I chose to depict (mostly) character portraits of the flowers found in Hans Christian Andersen's story - "Little Ida's Flowers". I really loved that story when I was little.
 |
| [Ida]: “Can children go to these balls?”
“Yes,” said the student, “little daisies and lilies of the valley.” |
 |
| "The two most beautiful roses seat themselves on the throne, and are called the king and queen." |
 |
| "Hyacinths and crocuses which [are called] young ladies." |
 |
| "I saw a long yellow lily [...] She was a court lady.” |
 |
| "Large poppies and peonies had pea-shells for instruments, and blew into them till they were quite red in the face." |
