Granted, I wish I had taken these in better light, but I wanted to show you Ziggy as I just finished painting him. He still needs to be varnished, and then we’ll get some better photos of him…I hope!
I don’t know why he makes me think of Little Bear. That’s Little Bear by Else Holmelund Minarik, with pictures by Maurice Sendak in the background. Maybe it’s the slope of his nose, or his amusing, but charming, overbite. I don’t know, but I think at the very least, Ziggy and Little Bear could be good friends.
