Todd and Peaches

 For Todd and Peaches! Inspired by Todd and Peaches, of course!!!

Well, I dunno what Todd and Peaches eat in real life but playing with food is always fun.
And eating them, of course! You get the feeling that Peaches might be the tidier eater here...

A bit of exercising to keep the mind and the body trim and happy. Mr. T the cat can learn a lot from this. Jon and Joo too....

oh, time to go up to the mountains to pick some mushrooms! Since Todd has decided to take his wonky old bicycle, Peaches decided to join him too. I am not sure if that is a good way to go UP a mountain, but Peaches is determined to keep his friend company. Actually, they have friends joining them on the climb. No one goes to the mountains for mushrooms alone, that's for sure!

shark boy

 I renamed my clothes peg SHARK BOY.

Here is a song to celebrate the essential, multi-talented Shark Boy.

renaming colours

 

I gave new names to these colours today. With these new names, I made up a song. These are the words of the accompanying song: Here's a message from the bees On a skylark morning Anything is possible When I put on my dancing shoes Bugs' eyes peering through a revolving door A brooch for mum on the tablecloth Yonder lightning flashes in the sky It's gingko summer Book a ticket to Sunnyville Poor weeping willow Let your troubles go like Erik's tumbleweed Stop taming wild hippo This is where my paintings live Mysterious objects like Juliet's eggs Put a tourniquet on my broken skull Grumbly tumbly bear

 You can watch the video i made with these drawings here:

4 ways to live in a square canvas

 well, I gave this challenge to my art students many years ago. 

Try to fit these few things into a painting:

1. a man in a suit that is too small, wears a hat, shoes that are too big, bow-tie optional;

2. a walking stick;

3. a cup, contents unknown;

4. a banana;

5. a green sofa

6. an orange cat.

I made these 4 miniature paintings.
