Before, After, a Squirrel, and lots of Parentheses

I've been meaning to give this very old bunny a make-over for awhile now. You can't tell too much from this before picture, but he's got some water damage. Plus, I'm tired of brown. So I popped out his wee little eyes (which I was happily surprised to discover were glass), gave him a couple of coats of paint as a primer (that old paper pulp really sucks up paint), and gave him a new bright yellow outfit. (Told you I craved yellow this time of year.)

 Here he is meeting Chameleon and Hedgehog (both of which are my son's doings) -

And here's a little friend that seems to like to watch me work in the studio. (Until my dog, Tuzy the Wonderfluff,  inevitably discovers him and triumphantly chases him off.)

I love yellow, but then, I love all bright colours...must be the Mexican in me!! LOL

Love your little friend in the tree. I had one living in my storage shed last year and drove my little Chihuahuas crazy...was really quite entertaining to see him/her tease my little Senor Cacahuate and Maya. Big windows in one's studio is really quite inspirational!! LOL

I live in a yellow house with a yellow kitchen. I learned that from my Dad. My Mom said he would paint every room yellow if she would let him. I understand. Dark, gloomy days are tolerable when you get to see yellow. Mr/Ms Squirrel is posing, hoping to inspire you to create its likeness into one of your pieces of art.:)
