Love this, always a wonderland fan!

Love the inticate detail in your work.. Hats off to you Anita

Thanks Robin- Look forawrd to seeing more of your enchanting images

I want to be at this Tea Party… Delightful artwork..love it..

Outstanding…

gorgeous work!

Oh oh oh wow! This is stunning. Great detail and atmosphere in this drawing. Fantastic.

Absolutely love this!

Awesome – Nice work!

love this! gorgeous work anita :)

Alice in wonderland is my all time fave book xXx

i love all your pen and inks.

Gorgeous!

Gorgeous!! :)

I have a friend who has dedicated her right arm to Alice in Wonderland tattoos. I’ve always loved the psychedelic notions of it. Nicely done.

That’s exactly it – she took the theme and twisted it on its head – adorning herself with a really dark and twisted Cheshire Cat, Queen of Hearts and Alice herself. I haven’t seen her in a while now (I actually partnered her in my débutante ball) but I think she has a facebook and/or myspace page with some photos of them. I don’t have accounts on either of those sites so cannot access them.

wow.incredible work.i love Alice too.

Completely and utterly wonderful!

beautiful drawings! love the line work black and white!

Great image. Love Wonderland, and this scene :)

so gorgeous!

My daughter LOVES your work!!!

She wants Alice and Wonderland stuff in her next room! :)

well we spent FOUR hours for her to find out WHAT she would buy with her something a “gift certificate” she one from her self portrait she did. (it’s a pic here on my bubble). She said she would have chosen one of yours had she seen it first.

woOW!!!
That is NUTS, really really awesome work, all of it are. you got so much patience.

gorgeous work!

Love it! Your work really reminds me of Rackham!

Go the white rabbit and the hole and all the trippiness that wonderland has….
A good theme!
and i love your pics! :)

I find this theme fascinating- away to do a miniture wonderland set soon xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Alice in Wonderland, it’s my favorite!! :))))))))))))

I can’t wait to see it. :))))))))))))))))))))

All I can say is I am a fan!

I don’t know how or why I could have missed this. I love it…I love your lines and detail. Always loved the doormouse…

wow, what an amount of detail! Great drawing!

Simply awesome Anita!

Now Anita it is my turn to say HOW WONDERFUL this work is. Alice is my favourite of all favourites as a story. I read and read and re-read this wonderful tale as I was growing up. In fact I still have my original book (it is well over 50 years old!!!) – I love it so much.
You have truly captured the essence of this magical and abstract world of Louis Carroll.
Carol xxxxxxx

This is fabulous!!!

Where did you learn to draw like this?

This is amazing fine detail Anita, I love it,
Cheryle

hi Anita,than for yuor message ..i like yours very much

wonderful

my daughter and I both adore this!

Incredible work Anita!!!

your work is truly incredible. I know the time that goes into this kind of work you’re amazing! You must have pen in hand nearly 24/7. Maybe you should think about getting a pen surgically attacehed. :)

absolutely wonderful and amazing work!!

wow…you’re an amazing artist yourself :) Love your Alice stuff…...striking!

I love your style, I’m remembering when I first started freelancing as a graphic designer (before computers) Most of what I did was pen and ink, or store windows and murals. Really fun images! I invite you to stop by my spot for a hearty holiday greeting from my friend the Blue Man!!

Thank you for your lovely comment Syd- heading over to have a look xx

OH MY, THIS IS MAGNIFICENT WORK!! I ADORE ALL OF YOUR WORK!!xx

Love love love this. can i have it a little bigger please?

Marvelous!!!!! :D

This is beautiful work and I do wish you all the very best with the competition too :-))

I’d love to see this in the Mad Hatter Challenge

one of my favorite parts in this book! flawless illustration… i love your line work :} I cannot get enough of it!

I’m going to sit here and quietly hate you for a minute. Take that as a compliment.

Um OK sweetie xoxox

Wish you the first place in challenge…The Mad Hatter!

What a great look for the tea party! It’s got that ‘old book illustration’ feel to it!

Oh, boy, Anita- I have been staring at this piece all day, it hurts my eyes, how did you ever get it done. This is INCREDIBLE!! all those tiny details in the background, wow it really POP!!!!!
You even drawn a tiny deck of card inside of the rabbit’s sleeves, who would think of that but you:))))))))

and because i love this work especially and it is such an incredibly beautiful and detailed work, i would love to RECOMMEND it for the I Recommend Group!!!!! this is my first recommendation ever :) xxx

Really quite amazing work. Love this one.

Wow! your detail is fantastic, i really love your wonderland shoes

Ahh, one of my favorite books! Such a great take on the scene, too… you’ve got the perfect touch Alice!

I recommend this piece. I cut my finger so I’m not typing a bunch of stuff as to why, not tonight, but, I do recommend it and if you go to the I Recommend group, you can submit it! I Recommend

Good luck with the challenge The Mad Hatter, ...to the top!!!!!!

haha who???? I can’t think anyone!!!!
Ok, together to Robert again!!!! (’’,) (’’,)

oh my goodness i looooooove alice in wonderland….amazing artwork

‘A in W’ has always been a favorite here as well and these are most excellent illustrations!

I love your detail work as always! I think there is an Alice in Wonderland group called “the Looking Glass”?

Fantastic work, Anita! Such detail and all those little extras to look for (like is that rattie in the teapot?) ;o) Does it take ages to do those intricate backgrounds???

so very magical ! excellent xx

Alice has been on my mind…

very cool, dear… your creativity keeps on going and going.

beautiful – comes very close to my own imagination of this scene

your style is so beautiful that it gives me headacks
awsome
i used to draw this style when i was very young
you are really inspiring me to come back to it;,
i noticed that girls love this style more, and its very sweet!

*yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaah!!! 4th place in The Mad Hatter, your turn to rock in the challenges now sweetie hehheeee (’’,)

This is all kinds of amazing! How do you maintain sanity when working on all of the fine details?!? It would make me mad as a hatter!

fantastic !

all of your work – it’s all fantastic
i hate to think of how much time goes into each piece

Love it ! I would like to color it in! It’s hard to find an adult (PG) coloring book. I love the details! Just because we grow up doesn’t mean we wouldn’t love to color!

Love it!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxo

Your renderings are fantastic!! :) beautiful linework and style. truly good stuff.

Yours are the loveliest Alice illustrations I have seen … and I am not just speaking of Redbubble either. Have you plans to offer them to a publisher … I do hope so.

GREAT illustration!!!

looking at your works , really make happy and make me smile,
full of eyes, and caracters::*i really love em

Wonderful in every way! :)

wow, you’ve capture the essence of a Victorian print here – the details are incredible :) bravo xxx

fab!

this is friggin’ awesome i am a big fan of alice in wonderland myself you have inspired me ot get back into my drawings of her and the characters i love it love it love it !

Hello Anita; This is just beautiful!

Oh another Alice fan, how cool ,i love this and this story is on my digital drawing board lol

Wonderful work!

Excellent Work.

I can’t believe I haven’t commented on this one yet Anita! It is gorgeous and so well deserving of your contest win and feature! A truly lovely work of art! ;D

really wonderful, cheers

Love your imagination,
and all excellent elements and so great details! :)

Great Work

lovely

It was hard to pick a specific piece or yours to start with as far as complimentary comments are concerned… I love the ink as a medium in general, but there are so many elements in this that I like… Alice’s numb expression, the beautiful profile on the Hare and especially the porcupine/hedgehog below the table. Your work is lovely!

amazing artwork. love your style

I so admire your style, you bring your images to life in such an amazing way.

Wow Anita I can’t believe I missed this work. You have wonderful drawing skills.

Fabulous work !!!

I see that I am not the first to comment on this wonderful art and that is NOT SURPRISING :o) A well known classic and the thing is that of course the viewer has a checklist of what ‘should be seen’ the picture. 1. ALICE :o) 2.Mad Hatter 3. Dormouse 4 Cheshire Cat with super smile 5 White Rabbit and watch and then the details : Playing card in the sleeve of rabbit, the zzzzzzzz across the page from Dormouse :o). Finally love the glazed/in a dream look on Alices face.

Excellent and beautiful work

I like the way Alice’s eyes capture the viewer (Well. At least mine.) and then the Cheshire cat’s etc.. (I had pupils, at two different schools perform my version of Alice in Wonderland. Feel a connection with it and this is so well done!!)

As a primary school teacher, I just made up my version, in 1968, in Bourke (far north west NSW) and then repeated that at the next school (smaller version).

Rushed it.
The first one should say:
HERE!

What phenomenal art Anita. How long does a piece like this take you? – I just would not have the patience. You are the one with the amazing imagination. Your name pops up so often with all your favourites, that I must overlook the artwork you upload. You are so talented!!! xxx

when its tea time, ole alice, will sit with any crowd, hope it decafe? so she can sleep, tonight- magic art by a magic maker!!

Alice In Wonderland and Thru the Looking Glass. Probably the most popular story/ picture books in history. Brilliant interpretation Anita. Sir John Tenniel would be envious! :)))

I’m in a w e ….when i see such detailed works, you are the ink and pencil queen!

SO GREAT!

That background is INSANE.

Oh, that mug with the full image wrap-around – divine~!

This most have taken some serious patience, It was difinitly worth it! Great

Another wonderful artwork. You really should do a children’s book of some sort.

beautiful … wowww

Fantastic Work

you are such a talented artist/illustrator!!!! cheers! cm

Tea party!
Fantastic work!

it’s so cute! I love these animals!

oh Anita cant get tired of diving in your pieces…

perfect, i love the style and AIW too!

Delightful-Love the hedgehog at the bottom.My sister made a fabric stuffed Cheshire cat years ago,she also made me a canvas cat with flowers she painted on it,so I named her Bloduedd?[I know I spelled this wrong-it’s missing something]. Thank you for fav.’ing Olwen,I’m glad you like her.

WoW this is brilliant

The detail in your work is amazing. So intricate it just pulls you right into the work. Fabulous work.

hi anita – long time no look … that’s a more worldly looking alice than is typical – she looks like she might put on jeans and a t-shirt when she gets home again … nice work ;-)
