Peanut

6/9″ Mixed media on paper

For some reason, this mixed media painting makes me think of my new friend “Peanut”; she’s a squirrel. She is quite friendly, or hungry. She is not shy, and she will take peanuts from my hand very gently. Although each day she gets a little more aggressive when asking for a treat, she climbs the screen door to let us know she is there, and she will run right in the house if the door is ajar!

My friend โ€œPeanutโ€ and the frog

    I like the contrasting black and yellow-orange colors. Peanut is a cutie, and a aggressive little thing!

    Peanut’s adorable! And that mixed media piece is terrific! LOVE the colors! When I first saw it in my Reader it looked like a musical note that has toes with pink toenails so right away the image felt like music to me. Toe-tapping, happy music! ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽต๐Ÿ‘โค๏ธ๐Ÿ‘
