claudine hellmuth's blog: retro * whimsical art and illustration

illustration friday: hide

Here's my submission for Illustration Friday's theme of "hide"

(click image to enlarge)
I'm not in love with this piece, but I thought I would submit it anyway rather than skipping a week... I was having one of those art days where I don't like anything I make. grrr... I hate that when that happens!

This piece is a little stretch for the theme, but I think it works with this quote:
"She wasn't trying to hide the fact she was having another slice of pie, well not exactly"

Works for me - don't hide your pie people!!!!!!!
I know that "bad art day" feeling. That's when I do something I've never done before or not for years and just play. Or open a chardonnay and wait it out!

What an adorable piece! I love it! I want to thank you for your book recommendations. I picked up The Adventurous Scrapbooker and Creatively Self-Employed. You're right...they are both fantastic books. I love to know what you are currently reading so please continue to keep us posted.

I do like this piece and it fits the theme "hide" so well. I must say that cherry pie looks good enough to eat. :)
