    Now I am sure it will have to be extended... I made a first sketch, and I am afraid that will be it (I hardly will have the time to touch it up), but I would dearly love everyone else to take part

    I like it!

    If anyone wants an extension, ask! If I don't hear from anyone the contest will close 4/15!

    I'll go you one better: I'll extend it until April 29, 2008, but I won't extend it beyond that.

    That should take the pressure off a little bit.

    I love that Jean! I keep meaning to ask you if you know of the Serbian artist Dusanka Petrovic:
    http://www.srpskoblago.org/gallery/2...g2_itemId=3413
    you have that same feel to your work - I love his stuff immensely

    I'm hoping to enter this contest, having the kids at home on school break has not given me much time...but the extension will really help

    Jean - Henri Rousseau is exactly who I thought of too...infact, I discovered Petrovic's work while I was researching Rousseau for a mural I'm doing.

    Thanks


    If only I could have translated what I had in mind into reality... I wanted to have Mr. Stuffy there encircled by a crowd of town-folk. Some would be laughing, children might have expressions of terror. A close look at the face of Mr. Stuffy might have shown them a pair of human eyes behind what most thought was just patchwork effigy filled with straw..

    Anyway, there was no way to get that image from my brain to my hands, so I was left with what you see there.

    I like it a lot!

    I don't know about the Festival, but it sure should be in the Towerpedia under "Charyou Tree"
