IF - "Ghost" Stories
OH, how I enjoyed listening to my two older brothers' tall tales about ghosts and spooks lurking around our house back in Manila. And they always brought their flashlights for special "story effects" too! Ahh, I miss those days, and I enjoyed every single minute of it. This one's for my brother, Chuck!

Michelle, another great illo! This one gave me a warm feeling as it brought back childhood memories of my own brothers. Great job!
This illo. takes me back to camping trips with my family. The flashlight under the chin still gives me the creeps. Fun!

Heh heh, too cute.
Great illustration. Looks like fun. I need to find a victim ... er, participant to test some stories on.
:)=
I love the expressions! I have two older brothers so I can appreciate the scared younger sister in the picture! A really fun take on the theme, Michelle.
Ha! So, so adorable. My dad used to tell us kids ghost stories like this. Thanks for bringing back the memories. Great expressions on your characters. Beautiful work.
I used to love those scary stories too though flashlights under the face always scared me too much. Terrific illustration of a wonderful childhood memory. I know it must be sadder drawing it knowing Chuck's gone now.
You should never be too old to hide under the bed cloths at scary story's.
That is absolutely gorgeous. I love the expressions on your brothers' faces. I remember scaring my sister by running around with a torch under my face going "OOOOO!" I guess it's just a big sister/brother kinda thing to do.
Very nice cartoon stlyle - funny too! :-D
lovely idea! great illustration
sooo cute!! great story moment!
pretty scary and pretty
Great tribute! Cute illo!
hillarious! so you're from Manila? I'm from the Philippines too! cheers! ;)
love them all!! It's my first time visiting your blog.
My favorite is your banner with you drawing in the middle of the night. Adorable!
:D i have these great memories too! I really like these drawings of your family :)
This is so cute! They look so animated!
Oh my gosh this reminds me of when I was little. My mom used to scare us so bad. She's been known to jump out of a clothes drier just for kicks (to see us scream!). Actually she's a lot of fun. Great Illustration as always. Lovely work.
Cool desing!
Abrazo desde España.
Big brothers and flashlights... they just go together, don't they. Nice illo!

Hi Michelle,
Even though the topic is "Ghost", I feel warm from your picture!!! I like your lovely pictures!!!
Wonderful memories, thought at the time your bros seemed mean and nasty. My older brother and sister were always playing tricks on me. Great illustration. Here's to Chuck.
Your style is great. Very creative concept!
Ja...
Beatiful work...

Really sweet, and I love the lightning! Ciao Michelle!
It’s funny to participate, but your comments make it much better.
Like your work and your texts. Thank you.
wonderful as always! love that you added the flashlights!
Lots of fun to look at and memories come back to me as well, older siblings thrive on moments depicted in your rendering. Your style is wonderful and fun!
Oh, the poor kid. I used to get really scared when people told me ghost stories.
How fun! I love the facial expressions!
