9″x12″ acrylic, 2012. This was my fourth occasion to paint this particular style of white Jellycat bunny! This time, however, I got to witness in person how soft and irresistable Jellycat toys are, and the devotion they inspire. These two belong to the children of Jenny of the wonderful Mamatoga blog, [...]
8″x10″ acrylic, 2012. While painting this bunny, I was absolutely mesmerized by the rich, pinkish-coral of this bunny’s inner ear. I appreciate a not-quite pink in a world of cotton-candy colored toys! This Jellycat bunny is the least-tattered and grungy of 3 identical bunnies (two are back-ups, but all are in [...]
8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. I encounter so many adorable stuffed toys in my business that I’m, perhaps, slightly more immune to their charms than the average Joe. But this sheep… I covet this sheep. It’s a Jellycat which has clearly been loved ardently. Heidi tells me that to her daughter [...]

He carries it everywhere, chews on its ears, and sleeps with his face buried in its fur. The bunny usually smells terrible as it can only be pried from [...]
8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. I love worn, washed-out lovies, but Veronika rocked my world with this orange velour anteater and a preference for an aqua background! Because Veronika has friends who are local to me, I was lucky enough to meet Veronika personally when she came to pick up the painting and also [...]
8″x10″ acrylic, 2011. This portrait features favorite childhood objects of both Penny-June and her mother, Kara-Leigh. Hop Hop, a well-worn Jellycat rabbit, belongs to the (adorably named!) Penny-June. Kara-Leigh suggested that Hop Hop be seated on a little wooden chair that was her own when she was small. I like [...]
