This was my valentine to Veronica but ended up being a great opportunity for me to learn from the master of linework, John Tenniel. American illustrators I think of from the same period are much more bold and graphic but some of the British illustrators (Tenniel, E. H. Shepard, etc.) had a real delicacy about their work. It was a really good exercise. And there are few bigger Alice in Wonderland fans than Veronica, so it worked out.
