Sweet painting, Don!
!Primer cumpleanos feliz, Elsa!

Fun isn't it? I've been messing with the gouche lately too and I like it better than computer painting. You can get some happy accidents that you wouldn't with a computer. Plus it feels soooo good putting it down! Buttery!

Super cute! Is that a book worm?
