Description Hi there!

So this is my illustration of one of my favourite scenes from Daughter Of The Forest, my most beloved book. For those who read it, you'll recognise this as the first time Sorcha puts on the blue dress and everyone comes in, including Red, who just stops talking. Amazed. "You were saying?" just sounded to me like something Ben could have said just to tease Lord Hugh. ^^

From left to right: Sorcha, Ben, John, Margery and Johnny, Red.

Acho giro agora associar o Johnny ao... ao Johnny.
Gosto principalmente do John! EstΓ‘ mesmo giro! Mesmo mesmo mesmo!
Essas mΓ£os! Acho que podias ter arriscado, nΓ£o? Aqui neste desenho dΓ‘ para sentir mesmo a falta delas...

sim, quem diria que o...Johnny algum dia foi um bebΓ© indefeso.
VΓͺs, o John safou-se porque tinha as mΓ£os debaixo dos braΓ§os xD
I know...I know...chega a ser vergonhosa esta minha falta de capacidade de desenhar mΓ£os e dedos (consegui desenhar dois Γ  Margery )

Vivaa! O Johnny tambΓ©m tem, porque nΓ£o se vΓͺ, escondeu-as. Tal pai, tal filho xD
NΓ£o Γ© falta de capacidade, Γ© falta de treino... tu consegues! Tens Γ© de tentar mais vezes!

Oh, yes this scene. Makes me chuckle everytime. We can only imagine Red's face when he sees her wearing the dress.
They are the loveliest couple.

Hey Cloudy-Melody! thank you so much, I did the exact same thing, with 1,2,3 friends of mine!ah-ah, actually I think they could not hear me talking about this book anymore, they had to check for themselves just so they could talk back to me, and of course got hooked on Juliet's novels.

I think this is truely wonderfull, though the characters look different then how I imagined them, but I think the way your characters look's quite cool too .
Anyway, you're a really good drawer and this is, like I said, a beautifull drawing based on a wonderfull book .

Hi! and thank you so much
My deepest regret in this matter is that I absolutely can not draw decent backgrounds xD I wish I could!
I do love this book with a passion, and I can see you do too!

Thank you so much LoveOfLiterature^^
It was so fun to give those characters a face and a body, I wish they were coloured and had a backround, I need to work on that

from one HUGE Marillier fan to another!cheers
