THE MAGIC PUDDLE (unfinished)

From The Past
I started this little wordless story called "The Magic Puddle" a few years ago. The boy was supposed to fall into a strange world underwater after jumping into the puddle, but I never finished it. Typical of me, I started finding things I didn't like about the drawings, and lost the creative flow. Perfect is the enemy of good right? Looking back on this though, it does hold a little spark that I missed by being too hard on myself. Sorry for the load time on this:

What!? I want to see more! You can't just leave us all hanging there. It looks cute. You really should finish it. I know how hard personal projects are to finish too. You just need a big ole deadline to push you along and maybe a big wad of cash would help too.
Fun story Paige and great illustrations. I would pursue it more. Even if you go a different direction. A magic puddle is very original.
I love this story Paige! You should finish it. I love the colors and the magic.

yea, way too hard on yourself. This is adorable. I'd keep at it for sure.
I agree with everyone else you really should finnish it! My kids really liked what you have posted here and asked where the rest were! LOL
Paige, this is really lovely! I wouldn't abandon it at all. It's a wonderful concept and already makes a very nice portfolio piece/start to a toddler book dummy. Don't be so hard on yourself!
Thanks for the encouragement you guys! I think if I did do something like this it would be in dummy form (bw pencil) - time is money lately, so I can't afford to do the whole thing in color. Now if I could get a publisher to give me an advance...hmmm...
:0D
p.s. artsy momma, thanks for the feedback from your kids, I'm so glad they liked it!
Oh gosh, Paige. I think this is fab! Revisit this one for sure!
Enchanting, certainly worth finishing, and something I want to buy when you get it published.
