Description

Welcome to our lovely bookstore this fine morning!
You may call me, Pastel, and my little sister there, Autumn.
Please, feel free to browse our extensive collection,
And enjoy a complimentary, homemade cookie! <3

=================
I may have only did basic financing and entrepreneurship, but I know homemade cookies are a great selling point for ponies.
Pro tip: if you bake cookies with extra love, they leave less crumbs to fall into your book.

Gosh I just love the idea of these two sisters opening up a small bookstore in big ol' Manehattan, I just had to add a little more touch up of color to this sketch. I wasn't exactly what Pastel's Pages looks like, I hope it isn't too drab. idk I would give the world to these two.

I have to explain, I sneak in pony butts for the practice.

Fun Fact: The optimal technique for a pony to dust is to retain balance on your hind legs and wiggle your tail to compensate for the motions of the duster. While unicorn magic makes this methodology obsolete, most unicorns prefer the manual technique anyways.

_{Wow, wow, wow! I'm finally getting around to commenting on this because I had to leave you a grand comment!

First off, this is by far my favorite piece of artwork of Autumn and Pastel! Also the first to feature Autumn and her sparkling new cutie mark! ♥ You captured her personality so well and that expression just makes me smile. Same for Pastel! From both expressions you can tell who's the owner and who's just helping along.

I really love the atmosphere you created and going as far to add color? I'm genuinely touched by this piece and for the first time it's so amazing to have some idea of how their bookshop could be like. (Because we never really have a set up yet, so your artistic take on it is absolutely wonderful! )

Also, my last thing but I have to know, is that box of books a homage to the art that I did of the two of them? ( I only ask because I remember seeing your icon on my visitors page a couple of times and THEN I could never put my finger on why...) If it is, you my friend are amazing. If it isn't, what the coolest coincidence ever!

Thank you so much for putting all of your love into this and bringing these sisters to life. I can tell you had so much fun with this and that's what makes this piece even more special for me. Thanks again! ♥ ♥}
