The Shiny Flower Friends

Years back, my daughter began drawing storybooks about these characters. Each story seems to have that cliché cutesyness one might expect from a creative girl her age, yet each story also has a dash of unsettling bizarreness... and I love it.

I can't help but think that her & I could have some real fun developing this world on the internets. I've slowly been tinkering with these interpretations of her three main characters over the last few years (she is a gracious creative director). Above are the most recent iterations, and I still have some ways to go (Tomato's leaf-hair, for example). You all may be seeing some character studies pop up on here from time to time, as I continue to help my daughter cultivate a universe. Who knows!
