Description "From the world below, one lonely creature sleeps in it's bed of fur and hay in the darkness without no sound and no light. He has dreams of a world, different creatures and a life that he has no idea what they mean. Suddenly, he wakes up to see a light glowing from above and far away from where he was. The creature begins to rise and walked towards the light. After a bit, he finds rectangular bricks stacked together, one by one. He puts a foot on it, bobbles a bit, then he puts more on them. When he looked up, the creature saw that these bricks seem to lead him up towards the light. He begins to climb high up, step by step. The higher he climbed, the more closer he was to the light. Soon, the creature got so close, he began to feel a little bit scared. He looked back down into the deep darkness and wondered if he should've stayed where he was where it was safe from the unknown. The creature took up courage and stepped into the light. What he saw then was only like from his dreams. He climbed up farther to see a whole new world around him. He saw different animals, plants, places even heard the sounds of them talking and singing. It was like waking up in paradise. Soon, the creature reached the very top of the steps and what he saw was the most magnificent thing he had ever seen... He gazed into the universe."

For , the last one of the special 3 drawings I made inspired by this drawing;
"Storytelling" by Penguinity

I kind of combined the last scene from that drawing along with this one; 
"Tea Magic" by Penguinity

And, I added a secret cameo to one of her creatures which looks like this;
"Colorful Dragon" by Penguinity  

I'm sorry to say that for the special feature there are no concepts for this. I do hope you enjoy these sketches of Penguinity's other characters I did for a test to see if I can get a hit of inspiration;
"Penguinity Character Concepts #1"   "Penguinity Character Concepts #2"   

(UPDATE)
Thanks to Penguinity, here's the song that became the inspiration for this idea;
"Stairs To The Universe" by The Antlers

Drawing Material: Colored Pencils, Art Paper

Wow oh wow! This is amazing!  I love drawing and the accompanying story so much! I do love stories about stepping out of the "comfort zone" and discovering the world unknown.  
I really really love what you did there. Thank you so much!  
Oh, it reminded me of this song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0STmo… ... which actually is about climbing the stairs that lead to the universe.

You're welcome. The song is cool. It does add to the drawing and story. This may be my least favorite of the 3 inspired drawings from "Storytelling" but I like it either way.
