Description This poem has been published! Do not alter, copy, redistrubite! The artwork is copyrighted by me, the poem is copyrighted by Riet Wille!

Few, here you go guys, my first work that has been published! I'm pretty proud of it. This is a digital illustration, made for a magazine called 'Knuffel' (wich means huggle in english) wich is sold in many schools throughout Belgium. I scanned it directly from the magazine, so the colors tend to look darker and desaturated in some parts, and the blues were brighter too. But it looks so cool! Knuffel is copyrighted by 'the eenhoorn' (the unicorn publishers, belgium)

For you I’ll buy:
A can filled with a flower’s smells
Ten smiles for you to wear
A chest with the wind’s sighs
A sack with a ribbon’s colors

A bottle of sweet questions
A package filled with sunny days
A box filled with sweet songs
A bouquet forget-me-nots

You can come to get everything
And pay me with a kiss

Maybe >_> I dunno yet... I like illustrating for children books but it's hard to make enough money with it. After this year, I still have one year to go and then I'll graduate X3

...Ik wist ook niet dat je Nederlands was ^^
Ik ben zo vrij geweest om een letterlijke vertaling voor je te maken, als je hem goed vind mag je hem gebruiken. Anders maakt het me niet veel uit, is tenminste een goede oefening voor mij ^^ *ik wil vertaler worden*

Yeah I was happy to see something printed in real life, it feels good :3 The colors came out even better then I hoped for in real life (but the scan pretty much ruins it)

Really nice illustration there, Wanda. :0 And the poem is nice too. Do you know poet in person?

Blacklotuscomic In reply to Shinerai [2007-06-15 11:55:53 +0000 UTC]

No, I don't know her, everything happens freelance by mail, so we don't even get to meet the publishers.

We get 4 opportunities every school year to illustrate a poem for 'de eenhoorn', everyone in our 3th and 4th year participates, and one gets picked ^^ I got picked for the last one! which made me superhappy :3

Shinerai In reply to Blacklotuscomic [2007-06-15 19:19:58 +0000 UTC]

Wow that's really cool! C: I wish something neat like that would happen in our school. But the only thing I'm my school is pregnant girls and gangsters.

Either way, congratulations. C: And I think you did a great job.
