What could be more silent for National Day of Silence than a mouse walking a cocoon?
This is the second panel in the illustration I’m doing for something else (which I promise I’ll tell you about if it happens). I’m glad it works for today’s National Day because I wasn’t going to have time to do a painting (stories to write/review, toilets to clean, and cinnamon buns to bake).
Happy Friday!

A mouse walking a cocoon… such a cliche really! 🙂

I love how zen this scene is. Is this the early years of Fluffy, the equivalent of being a puppy? Or in this case, a pupa?

Oh this is adorable! There is a sort of hushed anticipation about it I think – where is the mouse going? When’s Fluffy going to reemerge?- but still with a sense of peace to it. Fantastic!

Something in me just shudders to see toilet and cinnamon buns mentioned in the same sentence. That said, I love the illustration!

Thank you and yes! I’m saving it for an appropriate occasion to trot out (have to dole my art out since I don’t do enough of it). 🙂

Thanks, Jill! Housework is not the most fun thing but I guess you can think of painting (or writing) ideas while doing it. 🙂

Because if they did, we would be able to find all those monarch butterfly cocoons in our field of milkweeds! 😀
