The images I've put within these pages have been drawn in apps, edited photos from the Internet and graphics I've done with numerous apps from Apple App Store. All have been done with my Kindle Fire & mini iPad devices. I will also try writing a bit of a Tale with each one, its's content related, in some way, to its image.

I hope you enjoy them!
