Another teaser for my Grimm project. The upper comics bubble is taken from Popeye comics in Hebrew, which I loved to read when I was a child.

    אני כבר רואה את כל הפרסים שהעבודה הזאת תזכה בה. נפלא!
    הייתי מבהיר קצת את הכיתוב, הוא מעט קשה לקריאה.

    What an absolutely wonderful image! Is this the one about the fish who grants three wishes, but the fisherman's wife goes a bit overboard with what she asks for…?
    Love it — bravo!!!

    Hi Ofra

    I really like your interpetation that our wishes are sometimes our prison.
    Great work

    תודה לכולכם! ובאמת שחר, ההערות שלך עושות לי הרבה עבודה! יותר מדי פעמים ביום אני מצטערת שאני לא עובדת על המחשב, אני ממש ועדת קישוט עם האותיות האלה

    "M", Thank you! it is actually this fairy tale.

    עפרה,
    זה מקסיםםםםםם!!
    פשוט להסתכל על זה כמה דקות ארוכות ולהתענג.
    ואין שום בעיה בבהירות הטקסט :-)

    !אורית ועירית, תודה

    Ramirez, an interesting observation of yours. Actually I was refering to the prince that has been cursed and turned into a fish.

    עפרה, את יכולה לשלוח לי את הסריקה ותיק-תק אשפר את בהירות הכיתוב, לא צריך לתקן פיזית :)

    Dear Ofra,
    We looked you up after purchasing Saba Bishel Marak, which captivated me, in the most part, because of your wonderful illustrations. The drawings we've seen here in this blog are truly moving. We thought we'd drop a note and tell you how much we appreciate your work and how it enriches us, both children and parents.
