JULY ILLUSTRATION CONTEST: INDEPENDENT

[stringfellowart]

Here is my entry for the month. A little marionette finds her new independence when her strings are broken. After adventures in the wide world, she returns to free her friends.

I'm thankful for the monthly prompts and really enjoy seeing everyone's creations. Independence is an adventure even if others don't see it the way you do.

I read something here on the thread today that "independence means something different for everyone." With reading that I decided to go with my original concept, although it may not read independence right away, I am a mother of a toddler this is what independence is for me at the moment. Title "House Kitty." Loads of fantastic entries everyone!

@lmrush Oh I get it totally! Easily makes sense. And it has a peaceful sanctuary feel to it. Nice job!

@harveywalls thank you

Here's my submission. I thought of my little grandson who is learning how to dress himself and be independent. Should have done some more sketches, etc. but, I am learning. This was my first attempt.
