Wonderland Tale - Fairy Tale - Female Illustrator - The work is meticulously rendered in an exacting technique of line to the point of wonderment. Yet, Baxter can obtain an ethereality to her characters that are in keeping with the fantasy nature of the work.

All the elements are in a precise conversation with each other forming a perfect composition of grace and harmony.
