I'm part of a Moleskine Sketchbook Exchange [aka Moly X 70]. I made a banner for the blog.
I just finished my entry into Carolina Espinosa's Alice in Wonderland themed sketchbook. I had too many ideas but because the previous entries involved the Rose Garden, I settled on the Queen and King of Hearts.
The King and Queen are always portrayed old, why not a young pair of royalty, too immature for their crowns? It also confused me in Sir John Tenniel's illustrations as to why the Queen and King were the only exception to not being cards. I like Edmund Dulac's interpretation much better because he combined the inanimate playing card and human qualities.
