Today is Alan's father's birthday... Happy Birthday, John!! You don't look a day over 30!
I took one of my Whipper Snapper kitty illustrations and created this little digital painting in honor of John's birthday. Normally I do my paintings the old fashioned way, with watercolors, but I thought I'd do something a little different tonight.
It took a LOT longer to do it this way than my usual way, but it was fun! I am by no means an expert at digital painting. In fact, I only know the basics. But I kind of like the youthful quality I get with this kind of illustration. It's something different to do, if nothing else. *grin*
It's a great day to have cake.

How adorable is that! I just had to also tell you I saw your new sets coming out at Whipper Snapper and I'm LOVIN' the chickens! Adorable!!
