Wonderful work!!!
Fabulous illo, full of delicious woodsy details. The ferny pattern is an effective backdrop too.
I really love this character, and the fronds in teh furthest background. The Detail and rendering is great.
Too bad the poor Doctor is forgotten - I'm sure if this painting was hanging up somewhere, he wouldn't have been so easily lost ;)
