Henry Hedgehog and Apples Painting

I have been working on a series of paintings for a local children's boutique called Cradle Will Rock that I just LOVE! The decor and clothing is whimsical, colorful, fun, retro, vintage and funky....my perfect combo! I just wish I could shrink into the adorable clothes. The owner designs and sews the majority of the clothing, and she uses a wonderful mix of patterns and prints. I wanted to complement her aesthetic and come up with a concept that would fit right into her style. So, I decided to paint backgrounds and borders that look like fabric prints with painted animal "patches" in the middle. I just finished the Henry Hedgehog and Apples painting and am now working on completing a Kitten and Cherries and a Circus Elephant.

Polka dotted clown critters!

I just finished this juggling cat lady and these two mini clowns. The little kitty and rabbit clowns remind me of those weeble wobbles i used to play with as a child...i love those chubby round bodies! These pieces defintely show my fondness for polka dots!!! All three will be available in my etsy shop shortly.
