The little bird cried for help once more. Rosie left the path & went to help the bird. Once freed, the little bird looked at Rosie & said, "Thank you very much for your kindness. You chose to help me over your quest & that deserves a reward." #folktaleweektrail #folktaleweek #folktaleweek2024

A night sky, with our character in red looking up. Behind her are two rabbits looking on. In front of her is a thin silver trail leading into the distance.
🌙 A thin silver trail emerged. It looked like a crack on the ground, lit softly by the sky.

My Lino block print on white 8” x 10” Japanese paper each with a rooster viewed from the side. The rooster has a red crest, brown body and feet with blue and green under- and tail feathers. There’s a little green grass by its feet. One foot is lifted like it’s walking forward. There’s a little man who is hedgehog from the waist up, wearing boots, pants and a vest, holding bagpipes riding the rooster like a horse.
For the 4th #FolktaleWeek2024 prompt #folktaleWeekTrail I thought of the fairytale Hans My Hedgehog, who knew all the right trails. I love the absurdity of a half-hedgehog man riding a rooster and playing the bagpipes.
His parents desperately wanted a child, and his father foolishly wished for
Boy and his dog companion share a tender moment on the trail.
TRAIL
The trail was long and winding, but it wasn’t all bad. They had each other.

Illustrated phone wallpaper featuring a trail meandering through some flowers and trees, stylized to hearken to the Scottish style of Art Nouveau popularized by Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh Colors are a dusty brown, blue green, dirty yellow. In the distance are rolling stylized hills with stripes of color. Overall very textural and gritty.
Illustrated phone wallpaper of a stylized Art Nouveau trellis of raised silver gray lines with ornamental circles and leaf-shapes of inset green resin pools. Behind the trellis is a textured paper background with red and dark green watercolor washes.
Made alternatives for #FolktaleWeekTrail, sorta (?) inspired by Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh.
Made a phone wallpaper version, and a riff on the style. (It turned out sorta like an old 3.0/3.5 D&D rulebook cover. Huh.)

Folktale week illustration for the prompt trail by Nicola Schofield. A misty forest in pastel pinks and yellow. We see two wheel tracks come in from the left, wobble around violently as if there was a struggle, then calmly leave the right hand edge of the image. On the floor, near the struggle area, is a cracked phone, still playing music.

Let us follow the trail to learn their fate.

A collection of at least 6 Lino block prints on white 8” x 10” Japanese paper each with a rooster viewed from the side. The rooster has a red crest, brown body and feet with blue and green under- and tail feathers. There’s a little green grass by its feet. One foot is lifted like it’s walking forward. There’s an unprinted silhouette of a leg and boot, like a little man will later be riding the rooster like a horse.
Another new print in progress for #folktaleweek2024! This one is for #FolktaleWeekTrail and starts with making roosters….
