Do children still like Hansel and Gretel by the Brothers Grimm? I loved it when I was a child, the creepy woods, the scary witch and as for the cage....shudder! I painted this image to show the attraction of the gingerbread house to the two children, the woods are dark and menacing behind the house and the children are warily drawn to the sweets glowing on the walls. It is painted using watercolour. I loved creating the weird bird.
