Illustration Friday: Friendship



Three Friends ©1999 Catherine Erin Hamilton (that’s me)

I was happy to receive the weekly notice of the topic for Illustration Friday today, because I actually had something in my archives that fit the subject, “Friendship.” I did this illustration a while ago–in 1999–for a children’s music CD cover. The compilation CD was called, “Celebrate Friends” and included songs by the Sugarbeats and Trout Fishing in America (my favorite!). If it was still in print I’d give you the link, but it went out of print when the publisher, Zany Brainy, went out of business. But that’s a sad story, and friendship is not sad, so let’s just think about what a treasure friendship really is and forget about the rest.
