    I love it. It instantly makes me wonder what kind of adventure the wind is blowing her off to.

    Amazing, where is that weird wind taking her, would love to know. Love the perspective and the way you have painted the wind. Very skilful, love seeing your work.

    This is beautiful, makes me think of a modern version of Dorothy and Toto. I love how we can see everything from up there ♥

    I am intrigued to know how you did the white swirling wind, did you leave the paper white or overpaint with the white?
    Its very impressive.
