A stylized blue ink drawing on patterned paper depicting a semi-circular landscape with various elements. On the left, there's a large, rounded mountain or hill with a waterfall cascading down. In the center, a quaint village with small houses is nestled among hills and trees. On the right, a Ferris wheel-like structure with radiating spokes stands tall. Throughout the scene, there are details such as birds in flight, a truck on a road, and smaller structures that suggest a lively, yet serene, rural setting. The artwork is numbered and signed by the artist at the bottom.
A stylized print depicting a scene with a white bed covered in a blue and white patterned duvet. Snowflakes gently fall across the image. Four brown, shaggy dogs are depicted in various stages of movement on and around the bed, adding a whimsical touch to the serene bedroom setting. The artwork has a handcrafted feel, with visible paper texture and artist signatures at the bottom.
