That is an impressive amount of work Helen! Each one is so lovely. The characters are cute & endearing. Just yesterday described some artwork as Heleneque to my husband. A punchy style that is cute without being overpoweringly so with subtle blends & quirky bits. Helen, your work is fabulous & I am pleased that we could see some of it. I hope you become so famous that people will have to take a number & wait their turn like in the supermarkets. Big hugs to you

Barbie, a lot of creativity went into my works. Brainstorming and coming up with unique ideas for each book was the best part. For a lot of the images, I had to model my own hands or body positions. Adjusting to each client's art preference wasn't so bad, but when they asked me to make changes, that was probably the most difficult and tedious thing to do. I am honored that you labeled my art as "Heleneque" because it makes me realize that I have my own style as do you. Becoming famous might be a good thing and a bad thing, but then again, as long as people like love my work. Thanks for your support and commenting, barbie. A HUGE hug to you.

Got to agree with barbie, you really have your own lovely style, and very rich colors and details, I considered myself so lucky because I saw some parts of your projects, thanks for being so generous to let us see them, I, too, wish you a very good luck, the best thing is that you are doing what you always love to do and also you love what you are doing, that's why when the clients ask you to change some things you feel it is so difficult.

Thank you, Sargon. I try to keep the colors as rich as possible. I didn't realize how much work I've done. It's also interesting that if I get asked about each project, I can tell you what song or songs I was listening to and what hardships I faced with each project. I can't explain enough how much passion when into each of the books.

Helen, your work is wonderful! I wish I knew some kids so I could buy your books for them. and tell them I know the artist.
