Journey


To get through the hardest journey
we need to take only one step at a time,
but we must keep stepping.

(Chinese proverb)

You always find brilliant images to illustrate an idea! I like the green of the grass and your treatment of the shadows!

I really love this one, and by far my favourite. I like how you left in by the waste down, could be a boy or a girl, any one taking a careful step forward. Love it!!!

Very nice!
I remember the stepping-stones over little streams in Scotland and Wales.
And you are right: better baby-steps than no steps at all.

Another fun illo. The word 'journey' is so overused these days in terms of art and even reality TV that I groaned inwardly when I saw this week's theme - but as usual your take on it is so refreshingly different. x
