Illustration Friday - My Paradise

Whew! I wasn't sure if I'd get this one done in time because I had to research so many different elements. The inspiration for this illustration of course comes from the paintings titled "Peaceable Kingdom" by Edward Hicks. I've always loved animals and my idea of paradise would be spending a lot of time with all my favorite animals at once! I included some storm clouds in the background because I also love severe weather, in fact it's the biggest thing I miss about my Midwest upbringing.
