A bright and whimsical painting of a blue-toned kitchen, in which various baby animals in diapers are having a jam session. A pig is playing ukulele, a chick is playing triangle with a fork, a kitty is on the horn, a puppy is banging a pot, and a mouse, frog, snake and fly are dancing and vibing along as rainbow colored confetti and “noise lines” erupt from the musical instruments.
A night-time image in tones of purple with highlights of gold and cream. Cats are gathered around a cauldron in a backyard. The tabby in the center is stirring the steaming liquid with a long bone. A jersey-spotted cat in overalls plays a fiddle, a white cat in a dress sways rhythmically to the music, and a plain cat in the background peeks over the fence and seems happy and entranced by the goings-on. Fireflies and a moth dance in the air and a mysterious pair of eyes shines out of a hole in a tree.
A black and white pen-and-ink drawing of a mama anteater feeding a bowl of ants to twin baby anteaters who are seated in a double-wide high chair, with a speech bubble that says “Open Wide!” One of the baby anteaters is busy chasing ants across the tray with its tongue, the other has their mouth open to accept the offered ant spoon, and one ant is hastily scurrying down the chair leg and away from the anteaters.
A black and white pen-and-ink drawing of a crow wrapped in a blanket, nestled in an armchair with a book and a mug of a steaming drink in front of a warm fire on a winter’s night. A frame around the image creates an extra sense of cozy, miniature charm, and the overall vibe is one of handmade whimsy and nostalgia.
