<br />
<br />
Nibblefest this month is "Tea Time" so for me to paint the Boston Tea party seemed almost a little too obvious.<br />
<br />
In this painting, Lola (our inherited Boston Terrier) and Mr. Wiggles are reunited for a little tea party!<br />

For painting #29 I decided to try another more realistic painting. This is Buttercup/Kevin/Carl, now most commonly known as "Major Wuss." He's our largest cat, and is the biggest wuss you'd ever want to see. He has a perpetual look of alarm on his face and is always ready to run off in terror. There are other things too but I don't feel like writing a story.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Guardian-EgypTT-Text, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 25px;">This is a little forest creature, based off of a tiny glass animal I have with this look. Now I know this little guy doesn't look particularly "mysterious", but the mystery lies in what kind of a creature he even is!! Is it a deer? Is it a dog? A forest giraffe? No idea.</span></div>

Maybe this is the famous"Little Red Hen" or maybe it's a rooster? The wooden figure which inspired it looked much more like a rooster, but this one seemed a little girlier. Maybe I've brought out his feminine side!</div>

This is painting #8 in the 30 paintings in 30 days challenge. As much as I love painting, this is really taking a toll on my time, and we're only at day eight!</div>
