Childhood week 2018
December 1-7 / winter season illustrations set to Beatrice Blue prompt list

Day 1/ SEARCH

● story behind 'search' is about some childhood adventures, I spent a lot of time traveling around my hometown with my crazy-about-nature dad ● We looked for some berries, fossils, watched birds and bugs.

Day 2/ GIANT

● story behind 'giant' : I was with my parents, casual nature trip close to riverside. I heard weird noises, turned around and saw this view: huge and fat toad was looking into my scared eyes ● I still don' t know if I won this awkward eye contact contest ● as far as I remember this toad looked like this🐸😀

Day 3/ PARADE

● story behind : there was a short period I was collecting snails ● I made aquarium-looked-alike jar with fancy green facilities and food for them ● snails have different sizes, colors and I have them a lot- so actually this is only a metaphore for 'parade' 🤔🐌

Day 4/ RAIN

● refreshing, smells so well and always put in a nostalgic mood- for tea, blanket and books ● earlier it was a sign for a great water- mud games in the backyard 🐸

Day 5/ GAMES

● in the late 90s we have one of first PC on our street, so with my friends we were gathering around and play (one was playing, the rest was watching) ● On illu screen: Supaplex- weird, nerd-style and addictive ● There were some rules- queue for play (3 lives and then next person) and no food around computer

Day 6/ HOWL

● I spent most of my childhood with my older cousin, who also is an only child ● We had a lot of fun, built 'bases ' in his garden, play lego or were pirates fighting for some sweets with parents ● But probably our favourite was being 4 tankers and the dog (based on polish tv show from 60s about world war II) - except that we were 2, somehow we had a green platform on wheels and cardboard home😀 and we had a sweet dog Bari!
