Flamingo Kiss










Inspired by Valentine's Day I painted these sassy Flamingos doing a dance that might just be the Electric Boogaloo while gearing up to give eachother a smackaroo. Have a smashing Valentine's Day whatever you get up to.

Then I was inspired by the experiences of a London friend...... he has a wild fox in the neighborhood who sometimes sleeps on his sofa... can't help wondering.... what's the fox's story and why isn't he scared of humans? So I drew this illustration.

  4. Your paintings are great! My first thought was that I'd love to find a fox sleeping on my sofa, but maybe not...I hear they like to pee on something to show it's theirs.
