A Cocoon of Thoughts


I was looking at different quotes for this weeks Illustration Friday word cocoon. There were some very interesting ones and many I could relate and visualize to.

Cocoons are a place of safety, healing or a place you can transform.
A place were beautiful things can happen or be created… a creative mind is an amazing ‘cocoon’. As artist/illustrators we can and should create and set free for others to enjoy - our personal little butterflies.

The quote I illustrated was by James Russell Lowell:
"The mind can weave itself warmly in the cocoon of its own thoughts, and dwell a hermit anywhere.”
