Exciting characters always make a good story. For these 2nd class kids from St. Colmchille’s JNS, Knocklyon, they do know how to come up with such brilliant characters. As usual, it gives me great joy to illustrate their story this morning for the workshop. When Something the Brownie ( which indeed is a brownie) and Billy the Chicken Nugget is trying to escape from a hot kitchen where the floor is full of hot lava, all hell broke loose. With the help of Queen Bun and the rest of the brownies baked by her, she tried to ensure that Something the Brownie and Billy could escape the hot mess. I love how Queen Bun ordered her baked brownies to climb on top of each other to create a ladder for Billy and Something the Brownie to escape. This illustration was completed during the workshop and done digitally. Read this story online at the Fighting Words website :https://www.fightingwords.ie/stories/unbelievable-challenge
