Watercolours Have My HEART

I suppose it's time for an update over here. 

It was a long run...it's not over, but I can't deny that watercolours have my heart at the moment. The Animated Woman just has to wait. 

Water color painting of a male Northern Cardinal. This bright red bird with a little black mask of feathers, and a red beak, is perched on a branch running diagonally through the frame. The background is painted in the muted tones of a grey and damp early spring day. The Cardinal's expression is one of playful superiority, hence the title, "Cardinal Ruler".

Water color painting of a Great Blue Heron standing in a green pond. The heron has one leg up, mid-stride and is staring intently into the water, as if looking for a fish. Hence the title "Reading The Menu". Painting by Canadian artist JC Little.

Water color painting of a white swan on a deep blue pond. The swan is looking down at its own reflection in the surface of the water. Painting by Canadian Artist JC Little.
Look Harder

If you want to see what I'm up to, go see JCLittle.com - yep, I was finally able to get my hands on my name URL. There you'll find my fine art shop, landscapes and wildlife, as well as pet portraits and a way to commission a piece. I even have a quiet little Artist Blog over there.

Be well, be kind, be animated, I love you.

The Show Must Go ON...!

My precious Grandma slipped away from us today. At 97, she was finally ready. When I heard the news, I went to be with my family; I hugged them tight. And as we left I turned to blow my Grandma one final kiss from the doorway. But she was already gone.

Even though we were expecting this at any moment, the tears still surprised me. And then I thought what she would say;
"The Show must go on!" She'd stamp her walker, throw her head back and laugh. She had quite the laugh for such a tiny person! It shook the chandelier.

And so, since the show must go on, I invite you to scroll way, way, waaaaaaaay down...


Today is my Blogiversary. It's been two years since I leaped into the Blogger Abyss and never looked up. We've had giggles, tears, stories, eye rolling, we've poked fun at social media and we've shared the lighter side of parenting. It's been fun and I suppose I've done rather a lot of drawing.

Thank-you to all who have visited me here. I love you.

Let's eat cake!

LOVE Thy TROLL.

It was only a matter of time before a Troll finally turned up here on my blog. If you are that rare innocent who knows not what a Troll is, feast your eyes on this Wikipedia definition.

Plain English? Someone who comments mean things just to get a reaction.

There are ways of dealing with Trolls. Some like to engage in a game of One-Up-Manship. This could produce a large amount of heated comments which have nothing to do with the original blog post.

And there are those who say it's best not to feed the Troll...just ignore it and it will go away.

But I say - TROLLS! You are welcome on my blog!

You will be greeted with LOVE!

You will be OVERWHELMED by it!

Until you are rendered harmless.

And cute.

Trolls are people too, right?

So tell me about your Troll stories!


Love Thy Troll and TROLL Kitten t-shirts are now available in my Zazzle shop.

You can make someone else smile by sharing.

Enough of Being AFRAID.

What's in the BOX already?!?
Think back to the short film "Why is Daddy Crying?"

You all saw Daddy get his Father's Day gift...

...and you wondered if his wifey was being sneaky...



...if his ninja son was planning another ambush....



...or if his aspiring princess daughter was about to sink her chompers into more than mere plastic toys...



...and you prolly thought OMG the unicorn is in on it?!? Unicorns are meant to be pillars of innocence and purity! What the...?!?

And I bet that after taking a stab at guessing what was in the box, you started to get a little bit nervous for the Daddy. A little AFRAID even. Because it could so easily be YOU.
Am I right? Well, sometimes you just hafta confront your worst fears.

Now the moment you've all been waiting for; the Part II, the epilogue, the sequel, the director's cut....based on the remarkable life and times of Daddy Blogger extraordinaire WhyIsDaddyCrying.com...

Little Animation is proud to present...Enough hype already, play the freakin' film.



With that, I think I just added HORROR to the list of film genres I do :D You know how the dude feels about these things; it might be a fate worse than death.
Good thing it's only a film...so far.

See what WhyisDaddyCrying is saying about "What's in the BOX?"....

And tell me if you own a snuggie, how you got it and what colour it is.
