Ahh it’s been a while since I’ve actually painted something! This is the first time I’ve used Gouache and I have to admit I love the technicality of the medium, how you can’t go back into it once its down. The assignment was to create a children’s book scene of a child at a petting zoo. My story is of a little girl visiting a farm on her birthday and putting party hats on the chicks. Inspired by the fantastic work of Mary Blair. #fb
I ain’t got no home, I’m just a-roamin’ ‘round,
Just a wandrin’ worker, I go from town to town.
And the police make it hard wherever I may go
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore.
Now as I look around, it’s mighty plain to see
This world is such a great and a funny place to be;
Oh, the gamblin’ man is rich an’ the workin’ man is poor,
And I ain’t got no home in this world anymore.
