Day 7: DANCE prompt for of Folktale Week @folktaleweek and @storycamp_disco. I\'ve been inspired by a North American folk story where peacocks and ravens were once friends. The playful birds decided one day to paint each other’s feathers. The raven did a splendid job and created the vibrantly coloured peacock we see today. But, the peacock was jealous and didn’t want to share his magnificence with anyone, so he painted the raven black. I\'ve created my own version of this folktale.⠀ ⠀ The order of the given prompts is not the correct order of my story.⠀ ⠀ \"Dance\" - After the raven and the peacock decorate each other with colourful feathers, beads, glitter and bright trinkets they are overcome with joy and begin dancing under the stars in the moonlight.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #folktaleweek #SCDfolktaleweek #storycampdisco #folktaleweek2020 #illustration #illustratorsofinstagram #IlloStories #folktales #fairytales #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration_daily #illustrationartist #bestillustration #digitalart #digitalpainting #bookilustration #tales #peacock #raven #dance

I\'m entering Folktale Week @folktaleweek and @storycamp_disco for the very first time and have been inspired by a North American folk story where peacocks and ravens were once friends. The playful birds decided one day to paint each other’s feathers. The raven did a splendid job and created the vibrantly coloured peacock we see today. But, the peacock was jealous and didn’t want to share his magnificence with anyone, so he painted the raven black. I\'ve created my own version of this folktale and it all begins with the first prompt \"Birth\" - On a very windy morning a nest containing a baby raven is blown out of it\'s tree. The scared and hungry raven lands safely on the forest floor when a baby peacock discovers him. The peacocks adopt the raven and raise him. The peacock and the raven become the best of friends.⠀ #folktaleweek #SCDfolktaleweek #storycampdisco #folktaleweek2020 #illustration #illustratorsofinstagram #folktales #fairytales #kidlit #kidlitart #illustration_daily #illustrationartist #bestillustration #digitalart #digitalpainting #bookilustration #tales #peacock #ravenclawedit
