An author’s ode to her granddaughter …
Young Penelope exhibites a passion for the ‘polite’, a joy in developing friendships, and an uncanny understanding of potential dangers. Presented here in poetic prose, the author hopes to encourage other little ones to follow Penelope’s lead.
Illustrator’s Notes:
The artworks for ‘Perfectly Polite Penelope’ were created from scratch with digital pencils, brushes and blenders in Affinity Photo using a Wacom tablet and pen. Below is a selection of pages which I think show the remarkable ability of this program to render beautiful portraiture.
NOTE: Feeling a need to say, ‘AI’ was NOT used to create any of this content.
