OK this is the first Illustration Friday post with an illo from the lift the flap book I mentioned earlier. I have more on the story of this book in this post. This is from the page about sheep shearing and I figured it matched the theme because of the ranch hands have a routine when they clip a sheep. The first illustration is the main or background illustration, the next illo is the flap. This flap splits in two - imagine a midpoint down the leg of the ranch hand in the red shirt, the left side is the back of the flap, the right side is the front of the flap and is "closed" or what is seen when the reader turns to this page.

Wonderful action in these. I like how the sheared sheep looks so happy.
Great stuff!
Marvelous! Really lovely illos. I like how you had children helping out with the sheep instead of all adults.
Beautiful work. I love the sky and shading. Well done!
Wonderful images.
The book is going to be great.
These are really wonderful. The sheep's wool look great. The sheep that is sheered really looks sheered and the one being sheered is great too.
Great job!
