MY OWN FAIRYTALE ILLUSTRATIONS

I made these myself with Paint:
"Mrs Holle", the Grimm version of "Diamonds and Toads". The heroine, Gold-Marie, looks intendedly like Alice Liddell. She lost her spindle in the well and leaps in to retrieve it, descending to the underworld and meeting the kindly Mrs. Holle, who rewards her for her sense of duty and punishes her lazy, envious stepsister Pech-Marie (Misfortune-Marie).

"Hansel and Gretel". Love how this one turned out, with innocent children, a candy-themed wicked witch, and beautiful birch woods.
"Red Riding Hood", with the transgender wolf in bed and a round yellow sun. Want to know a secret? The heroine is carrying a loaded gun in that basket...
"Snow White". I gave the dwarves different hats, including a Che Guevara one and a Santa one, just for fun.
Rapunzel, with Flynn Rider climbing up her long tress. It clearly gives the appearance of a stone tower where the heroine is imprisoned.
Three little courtiers dancing the minuet, supporting characters from an Oscar Wilde tale. They are so cute that I can't resist drawing them!
A Pietà based upon a Swedish folktale about an undine and a military officer. The two young people fall in love, but they are separated by the call of duty. He is, quite obviously, killed in battle...
