Where the wild things are - girlie version. Gouache on watercolour 8 x 8
I finally read the book - simple & sweet but the art is amazing! All that cross hatching, leaves & detail, how joyful & relaxing and fun it must have been to create. The book was definitely directed at little boys & as we are aware - little girls can be tiny wild things too - Amen! A friend sent me a photo of her baby grand daughter dressed in costume (as seen above ) & I could not resist painting a version - to welcome another tiny human 'Theodora' with this gift. It made me happy just creating it, pondering the tiny girl in a tutu hanging out with the wild things.
Created to create!
Have a fantastic day - explore where the wild things are and give thanks!
