Lilly & Pig: The Laboratory

I suppose this is how it starts sometimes. Just gotta spend enough time in the lab mixing potions.

Some More Lilly and Pig

(Yes, I actually wrote a little! I quote here directly from my hand-written scribbles. I'll quote more as I draw accompanying pictures)

 "Pig is a World Traveler. Before he got Lilly he'd been to London, where he lived for a time, and Norway, where some of his cousins live.
  "He prefers visiting Norway in the summertime, however. It's too cold in the winter." 

Piggy and Lilly (first study)

I've been procrastinating the start of this particular idea. After indulging in your last post and the inspiring feelings resulting from it, I decided I could not possibly go to bed without doing something. In a way, I like it when that happens. Kind of like the idea needs life and it keeps you up afraid it will be lost otherwise. I should get better at listening to those feelings. They're the kind I want to cultivate.

In any case here they are: Piggy and his little girl, Lilly (study no.1). I think I like them. It's a start. It's almost like they're finally and really alive now. It's a neat kind of feeling. I've given them life but I feel more like their voice than their creator. I wonder what stories they have to tell...
