I especially like this last one.

Wait, how did I miss this thread?
These are really good drawings, thank you for sharing.

"For a few seconds Oskar saw through Eli’s eyes. And what he saw was … himself. Only much better, more handsome, stronger than what he thought of himself. Seen with love."

Utterly wonderful. Great choices. Different. So much like a strange fairytale.
Re: Forty years ago today
I have to agree with everyone else in this thread. Just wonderful! What a great undertaking for a project, and congrats on completing it.
What a fun way to revisit a particular moment and feeling from each chapter, I really enjoyed each one. It’s hard to pinpoint a favorite on here, but probably IX since I enjoy that imagery of Eli the dragon / monster. ... but maybe also XVIII.
The pieces with the negative white space really stand out to me emotively (IV and VIII). And I love your bird renderings... but I’m a bit of a bird nut, personally.
And, since i didn't see anyone else post it, JOCUND DAY STANDS TIP TOE ON THE MISTY MOUNTAIN TOPS I MUST BE GONE AND LIVE OR STAY AND DIE

De höll om varandra i tystnad. Oskar blundade och visste: detta var det största. Ljuset från lyktan i portvalvet trängde svagt in genom hans slutna ögonlock, la en hinna av rött för hans ögon. Det största.

Amazing! I almost feel 15 again looking at these.

Great Sketches
Your drawings inspired me to get a tattoo of one of the scenes.
