Description This one could also be called "A Beary Good Tea Party," .

I was thinking about how much I like summer and flowers and animals, and i wanted to make more organic-looking art. I also really like tea and blackberries. (or should I say "blackBEARies? )

I worked really hard on this one, practiced drawing bears, teacups, berries, etc. before I started painting. Plan on seeing more tea party pics w/ various other critters! Badgers might be next!

watercolors, colored pencils on Arches paper

The bear's design reminds me of the bears from the Charmin commercials. Did that influence you?
I love those commercials. It makes me want to go potty and shake my bear bum.

actully not really, i was just going for the storybook-type kind of bear, but i do love the Charmin ads...we never buy the thick, fluffy kind of tp, just the cheap kind.

My mom gets Quilted Northern. So I get to wipe my butt and think of old granny circles. XD

In all, I really like it. I should have mentioned that first. XD Your use of watercolors is very nice. I need to work on watercolors more often. I never can get the colors to come out so even!

yeah, thats the hard part...you have to paint quickly while it's still wet, and the paint kinda flows together. thanx for the compliments btw!
