“Music” for #childhoodweeK The first memory that came to me with this topic was the moment I danced in the livingroom with my roller skates listening to Spice girls or Aqua 🙉🙈 And of course my 2 lovely cats were there to see that. (Please don’t hold the cats like this) :

Little me in the Moomins world 😍 “Cartoons” is the first #childhoodweeK I’m doing, but I’ve been a bit busy so it’s not finished. My favorite cartoons were the Moomins, Willy Fog and David the gnome among others 🍄🌈🌱 Which was your favorite? :

Meet Sarah, an adventurous little girl from the book The Tale of the Sleep Fairy. #sketches : #charlottelyng #fantasy #character #characterdesign

These are the first sketches of our new project "the tale of the Sleep Fairy". To be honest I was a bit afraid to start with the character building because if you haven't noticed yet by looking at my insta, I draw a lot of animals but not so many humans. But once I kept going I got confident again! The characters are so cute ✨💛 : : #charlottelyng #fantasy

I'm illustrating a fairytale! A while ago I wished to find a writer to publish a book toghether in my style and then Laura from @littlebellelight came with her magical tale about the Sleep Fairy ✨ Dreams come true 💛 Thank you so much! : : #charlottelyng

I've been drawing a lot of stumps lately just for fun. It is great to just make the shape of it with one colour and then add shadow and texture with patience 🐢 #charlottelyng (at Basta illustrasjon & design)

Wow! It's been a while since I have drawn something, and this picture represents why. We moved to a little red tree house that is my dream home❤ Right now we are painting and repairing walls since some parts are still old. Can't wait to decorate :D Have a nice Sunday!

Xmas market is over and it was a success 😆 Thank you all for your lovely comments and best wishes! Being part of this events can be very stressful, but it is totally worth it when I see how people smile when they look at my dreamy illustrations. Nice to know that my woodland friends are spreading so much love 🐿🐁💕 (at DOGA Norsk design- og arkitektursenter)
