“you bring me carrots and celery…

You bring me carrots and celery

you bring me carrots and ce-le-ryyyyyyyy….”

I’ve had that song stuck in my head all day long. So I drew a picture of it in cute manga style…

But before that, I painted this…

Originally I planned on doing it in ink, but then decided they needed softer edges. So I used watercolors (which I dread so much), and I think it turned out well! They’re both so soft and fluffy looking! Swans were one of the very first things I used to draw as a girl. I would start with a large rounded backwards “2″ shape because for some reason the swan always had to face to the right. And they never had feet, because I was afraid to attempt them.

Then I did this little windy scene…

which I am very pleased with since it started out as a doodle.

Now my weekend is over, and tomorrow it’s time to head back to the bookstore. I should get some sleep!

Happy Tuesday!

    I hope that song isn’t anything like: Berries & Cream

    Hi,
    I love your artwork and was wondering if I could use your picture “Head in the Clouds” on my lens for Inattentive ADD? I could put a link back to your site.
    Thanks,
    Jennifer Camara
