"The creative person is both more primitive and more cultivated, more destructive, a lot madder and a lot saner, than the average person." F.Barron

Baby PNG

I clipped this baby from one of my Great grandmother's photopostcards. I added some color to the eyes and lips. I think he, or she, is just adorable. This is a PNG format. If you are interested in JPEG or would like the image without the added color just let me know.

Remember to click on the image to get the full size, then right click and save to your computer. Enjoy!

Obey your mother

This image is so sweet. Again, coming from Who Killed Cock Robin. The poem is cute. The image made me think of spring, and Mother's day is just around the corner.
Here is the original page.


And a brigher version of the image.

Butter and Butterflies

The image I have for you today is from the Who Killed Cock Robin book. The story is about a boy who tells two young girls that if they churn butter fast enough they can make butterflies. Eventually they realize Jimmy Brown was playing a joke on them. They story is called Jimmy Brown's Joke.

This is the original page. I love the little girl's faces, dresses, and tights. They are both so cute. The dairy churn is so detailed and I like the butterfly panel at the top. such a darling image. I played around with it in Photoshop for a bit. I'm dying to think of a project for this image.

This a the jpeg of the cleaned up version, and

here is the PNG.


These are just 2 images where I was playing around with some color. If anyone comes up with a project for thses two butter churners, please share.
