That book the kids sent you is great. You must feel very good about that.
Great tree drawings so far. I have my favorites already. I have been too busy to start anything.
Aren't they beautiful Marian? They belong to the artists that appear under each piece.
If you click on "giveaway" in this post it will take you to the original post were I explain more about the giveaway. I am giving away 2 signed copies of my book to 2 lucky winners that my kids will choose. The theme is trees. You are welcome to participate if you like :o)
Hola Frank! Yes, I did shed a few tears with the kids book. It was a total surprise for me.
I know, the entries are awesome! We have such talented blogging friends.
Well my friend I can tell you are busy with the commissioned paintings. Don't you worry, just work on it if you have the time and feel like it, if not that's ok too. I'll still share my mango ice cream with you anytime ;o)
Oh, Alicia, these illustrations all look wonderful! And the book you got from the kids is just so touching!
I hope to be able to participate. I have a sketch ready but still need to paint it. I'll try to get it in by the 4th! :-)
What fun. I love all the different aspects that these creative artists have come up with surrounding the topic of trees. So sweet of you to post them and share.
Hi Alicia, so many great works of art here! And what a thoughtful contest! Who wouldn't love to own one of your books? : )
Hi Monica! Yes, they are wonderful! I hope you can join. If it helps a bit you want you can deliver by Saturday. I'm thinking I can give one more day. Several people have mentioned it's a bit tight. Only if you can, no pressure :o)
Hi Lisa, they are different, aren't they? I love that :o)
Aww thanks Kate!! :o)
Hola Ali, solo ver los dibujitos y mensajes que los nenes te hicieron me llenó de emoción y alegría por vos amiga!
Estuve medio perdida ultimamente y me temo que me entero un poco tarde de tu propuesta en la que me hubiera encantado participar, pero disfuté mucho con todas las ilustraciones hermosas que te van mandando, inspirás cosas muy bellas :)
Abrazos!!!
Hola Pao!! Si estabas un poquito desaparecida.. ya me estaba empezando a preocupar :o)
Si tienes tiempo y quieres participar buenisimo. Si no puedes no te preocupes amiga. Voy a extender la fecha de entrega hasta el sabado en vez del viernes.
Un beso!
Wonderful illustrations.

I couldn't agree more Paz! :o)
Yo ya tengo mi boceto, pero no creo llegar :( estos días han sido terribles. Igual si en algún momento lo termino te lo envio para tu galería!!!

Happy July 4th!!!
Hola Zime!! Tranquila amiga, solo si puedes. Yo se como es la vida a veces que todo viene en grupos. Hay dias que no hay casi nada y otros de locura. Un beso y gracias por estas pendiente :o)
Hi Diana. Yes, they are awesome! Happy 4th to you!:o)
Boy, I don't envy your daughters having to chose from all of these great pictures.
Hola Frank! Actually I have a boy and a girl, Gabriel and Alexandra :o)
Yes, I know.. it it going to be tough to choose. They are really wonderful!!
OOOPS! Very sorry on that mix up, please dont tell him ;o)
No drawing from me, sorry, too busy this week.
I'll have to get a copy on my own. I dont mind, but would love to have had it doodled and signed.
Oh, no worries Frank.. On both the painting and Gabriel. I won't tell him ;o)
Thanks for saying you'll buy the book! I would love to give away more than 2 but that is really what I have left form the batch of copies that were sent to me. Of course I would love to send you a doodled copy for Erin! I can buy a copy when I leave now to the US and send it to you if you like :o)
These are soooo great! I love Linda's on the very bottom, but they're all amazing.
Hi Ambera! Yes I love Linda's and I think all of them are really good too. I think my poor kids are going to have a hard time choosing their favorites.
oh my, what a wonderful collection of work....a hard choice to pick a winner, that's for sure !! can't they all be winners ????
I know Nancy.. I feel the same way. I would love to give them all copies of by book. But I ran out and only have 2 left. But I was talking to the kids today and I think I might have 2 second place winners also and send a little surprise to them. They are all soooo good! :o)
Wow! They're all great! My favorite, Mmmmm... I have in mind!
Heehee, I've send you my entry too, it's wonderful to be able to join the crowd!
Corriendo, corriendo como siempre pero ahí te envién mi arbolito amiga. Qué bosque más lindo el que vas formando :)
Thanks Julia, I'm glad you are participating!!
Gracias Pao!!! Que bueno que vas a mandar una!! Un besote!
Wow! Esto no va a ser fácil. Los jueces van a tener un trabajo muy duro ¿No, Alicia?
Qué linda idea has tenido, siempre inspirando a la gente a crear... me encanta lo que haces.
Besitos.
Pati
Hola Pati!! Yo se.. tienes razón.. no va a ser nada facil.
Gracias, la verdad es que siento tanta pasión por lo que hago, de verdad... que a veces no lo puedo evitar sabes? Pero lo increible de todo es que tengo la suerte de "contagiar" a gente como yo, que siente lo mismo.. verdad? Todos queremos tanto el pintar, dibujar, ilustrar... crear.. que en realidad lo que necesitamos es un empujoncito tonto.
Tenemos mucha suerte de conseguir un medio donde nos podemos encontrar y comunicar... Es increible :o)
These are all wonderful! How could anyone pick winners??
What terrific fun! You've got a talented bunch of people hanging around your blog. Way to build a sense of community Alicia. 8 )
I know Mary, not easy!
Hi Ryan, true. It's wonderful.. well, you are one on them as well :o)
so sad I couldn't manage to participate, I love it Alicia, it's a nice idea, and a nice way to share the thought about the trees! :))
Oh, that's too bad Eugenia. Maybe I should of given more time in advance. But I really don't have much time since I'm leaving for vacation next week.
Thanks though for always checking in. I visited your blog recently and you've been doing some great stuff! :o)
Thanks for all the inspiration and creative fun that you provide. Check out my site, I have selected you for a blog award.
Wow Lisa, thanks so much!!! :o)
All these illustrations are so beautiful!!!!
