I love the Petit Prince shirt!! So adorable! And in a funny way, the ears/volcanoes thing works for me... it reminds me of a strange and lovely animated film we saw, My Neighbor Totoro. :) Ohmigosh!!

The little Prince has three volcanoes in his tiny planet. At first, I had all three. Then I decided to leave only two (the other one is on the other side of the planet). But in the final shirt I went with three. All along, I had your exact same impression of a Japanese cat. HA! HA! In the end, I changed the scale of the illustration from what you see above, and I really like the final result. Will post it soon — I'm trying... Working right now on a big project (monumental for a full-time mommy trying to start a part-time business). Exciting stuff though! Can't wait to share the news... Yes.

The only thing I keep thinking with it, though, are the two little - mountains? Volcanoes? The way they're positioned makes me think of those Japanese 'cat' anime-style things, as they look like little kitty ears. SO, not a criticism... just a curiosity. I really love the idea and especially the colors you're playing with. I like the overall feel of your illustration (I’m not at all familiar with those of Saint-Exupery, however).
