The Saddest Fireflies


Colerase & Watercolor.

I remember catching lightning bugs as a kid. They seemed to get so sad once in the jar. Lighting up less and less. We always felt bad and let them go free.

Kindov a quick one for Illustration Friday: Contained.

Edit: Colerase are a brand of erase-able colored pencils.
