Thanks for use of this lovely piece--it makes a whimsical companion to my piece SWEET DREAMS. I've used many of your works, for some of which you don't accept reviews; credit always given in footnotes. Cheers. LIZ

This is obviously a 12 star rating but 6 is as high as they let me go. I cannot tell you how absolutely marvelous this is. When I become rich and famous (one can always hope) I want to buy this so DO NOT SELL IT without checking with me first...lol It is so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes.

This is beautiful and sweet,precious, very cleverly imagined and orchestrated-just the kind of dream sequence we should all experience- I am thinking those little white spects were sprinkled by the sand man-lovely,lovely piece-

A lovely presentation of a child dreaming.

The objects floating around produces interest. The child sleeping adds to it.

Well done, nice to look at.

Awesome work, one glance at the small icon and I had to check it out. The colors all fall in to play. Very detail really intrakit. Tells a story of the child dreaming of the stars, and the butterfly that represents life. I love it. Rita

This is precious. It reminds me of the children's story Der Kleine Haewelmann by the German author Theodor Storm. It is almost unknown in the Americas but you seem to know it, do you? In any case this is just as made for a book with that story in it. I love the blue of the night seem to lay like mist or a vile over the picture. The planets and stars like silent guards and a butterfly bringing beautiful dreams.
I wished I had six stars left!
Best luck for the contest.

    Thank you so very very much for the beautiful review, Cleo. No, I've never heard of this author, but did look it up on the Internet. Most of what I found was in German. There was extensive info on the author though. I will get more info from you later :)

    I think the author was n ever published in the US. He was wan of my childhood favors. [I think he still is one of my favorites] I'm currently working on adaptions into English of some of his tales. Feel free to ask for any info. ~Cleo

This is so beautiful, the child is sleeping so peacefully, the dreams must have been so sweet:) Wonderful colors used, most beautiful detail, I love the butterfly watching over child. Great idea and marvelous painting, I wish I had a higher rating to give you, this piece of art certainly deserves more.
