The fairy tale of Alice in Wonderland has been one of my favorite stories as a child. Back in late high school, I created this illustration which was the scene where Alice first meets Cheshire Cat.

Later on in college, I was assigned to create two independent illustrations and I remembered that I had the Alice illustration that would be perfect as one of them.

Wanted to create different designs for both Alice and the Cheshire Cat and wanted to recreate the twisted parts of the tree to give the idea of being in Wonderland.
