Ceramic Plane

Posted on by Jennifer At Your Toy Portrait

8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. My nephew Kevin’s priorities are very clear: Machines that go first, then animals. On his recent second birthday, I sat with him and looked at a picture book which contained an assortment of both. He excitedly pointed and named things, one after the other: “Firetruck! Helicopter! Diesel engine! Motorboat!” “And what are these?” I asked, indicating a flock of sheep. “PIGGIES!” shrieked Kevin. This ceramic airplane adorns Kevin’s bedroom and represents his current favorite vehicle.

Watercolor Trio

Posted on by Jennifer At Your Toy Portrait

8″x10″ watercolor on paper, 2007. Here’s a watercolor sketch from a few years ago of three objects that may be found in my living room. The giraffe is a tea-light holder from Pier One, the chick is a bubble container/wand thing, and the ceramic hamster actually represented my husband atop our wedding cake. As you can (barely) see in this photo of a photo at left, our cake’s “bride” was a ceramic duck with a silver star on her head. Of course!
