Here is an illustration (spread) I did for a Novelty Picture Book idea.
(In the prototype, the “crunch of the snow” is heard by pressing on the area under the snowman’s feet, which is made of a crumbled plastic bag covered with white felt).

Illustration Friday "Crunch" by Pascale Mackey
A happy illustration; now I’m going to go make a good hot cup of tea and leave the cold to this charming snowman.
What a lovely idea, Pascale – do you have a publisher for this? It’s the best kind of ‘crunch’, isn’t it – fresh snow underfoot….
This is great! Love the colors & your take on the theme.
He’s so cute! Nice work!
Oh yes! I can relate because it snowed here yesterday and now the ground is crunchy!
Thank you so much for your comments everyone! I really appreciate them.
