While looking for some themed art I came across this image I created some years ago for a book featuring Koko the lowland gorilla. This was part of the intro to her story.

Brazil Kids Art lesson!
We learned about the country of Brazil, the Amazon rain forest and artist Romero Britto today.
We started off class learning about Romero Britto, a Brazilian Neo-Pop artist whose work really resonates with children. I’ve attached several examples here:
Then we created our own Romero Britto inspired art using crayola markers and black line work.
Flying Heart by Katie, age 7
I Love Olivia, by Vivian age 5
White Rabbit by Jeffrey, age 7
We also learned about the Scarlet Macaw and the Brazilian carnival.

We even made our own carnival headdresses!

I always loved those Tarzan movies with the treehouse, vine-swings and all those elephants. It was the depth of the jungle that I found so enchanting - hidden depths, elevated trees, simplistic (non-existant) plots. It was more of an experience than a story.
I'm attracted to the same qualities of depth in my paintings on canvas. The deeper and more mysterious the elements, the better.
I'm having fun playing with watercolor and collage on the side. Here's my favorite so far:
I like the combination of loose watercolor, playful pencils and precise papercutting, so I think I'm going to keep working on this idea some more.
By the way, this is the last day to vote on the GTS round two designs (see earlier post). If you haven't voted yet, check out the gallery

Kevin Lunsmann, Jungle Escapist
It’s hard to imagine a more frightening situation than being kidnapped by Al Qaeda mercenaries while on vacation. That’s precisely what happened to Kevin Lunsmann last year in the Philippines, and the 14-year-old from Virginia not only survived, but in fact rescued himself.
Kevin was taken hostage along with his mom and cousin by a dozen armed men who stormed their resort in the middle of the night and took them to a remote island. Held captive for 5 months – during which time his mother was released by paid ransom and his cousin escaped – Kevin somehow kept his wits and was ready when opportunity presented itself. He tricked his captors by saying he was going to bathe in a nearby stream, then took off, only to wander barefooted through the jungle for 2 days before being found by helpful villagers.
Impressed? See Kevin’s story here:

Here's the first in a series of Jungle animals. I'll put it in my shop soon. The elephant needed to be repaired. He had a weird ear problem. Now he's all better.
Q: Why is it hard to play cards in the jungle?
A: There are too many cheetahs!

An illustrated portrait I did a while back.
Kinda figured I'd add something since the Jungle theme is still up. >_<
Inspired by the Jungle and Seed themes...and spring in general!

hello Nicole! You're right, the elephant is really cute. Little lion is my favorite. Wait, I love the giraffe, too. And the monkey. Ah, fine. I love all of them. :P
