Pooh

I hate Winnie the Pooh. I mean, I really hate Winnie the Pooh....and all of his little furry friends in the Hundred Acres Wood.

So why did I paint him? Well, I thought maybe if I spent some quality time staring at his chubby belly we might bond. Ha. Nahh, a friend had asked if I was going to be making any Pooh paintings and while I hadn't planned on it in a 100 million years, it made me realize that there is a demand out there for it!

And, after finding the picture I wanted to paint, even I had to admit it could be a pretty cool painting. So here is Pooh:

I actually ended up erasing my entire first sketch after I realized I had completely misjudged the size of the canvas and drew him too small. THAT was frustrating.





And finally.....
