Description

- Cheshire Cat - from the Alice in Wonderland series -

"In that direction", said the Cat, waving its right paw round, "lives a Hatter: and in that direction" waving the other paw, "lives a March Hare. Visit either you like: they're both mad"

"But I don't want to go among mad people."Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I am mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm, mad?" said Alice.
"You must be", said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

- From Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland

Oh my, you actually quoted the book!

I'm a very committed lover of Lewis Carroll and I've never been a fan of any of the movie adaptations of Alice in Wonderland (or Through the Looking Glass), but it seems that the movies are all that most anybody knows.

So it always makes me overwhelmingly happy whenever I see that somebody has actually read it! :)

And it makes me even happier when they do an illustration is as beautiful as your's. :)

P. S. the Cheshire-cat is definitely my favourite character in Alice in Wonderland, next to the Mock Turtle and the Thimble (Just because the thimble doesn't receive any lines, it doesn't mean he can't be a character. Hmph!)
