We moved into our new apartment over the summer, and I've finally finished decorating our 1/2 bath. I was undecided as to how to decorate it seeing that the bathroom has a yellow sink and toilet. Anyway, I decided on a "kids" theme so I could incorporate the yellow with the decor. I painted a few zoo animals and have hand towels with lions on them. I'm pretty pleased with the results.


(I couldn't get the whole bathroom in the shot)

Painting children's art has become a pretty big hobby for me, and lately I've been thinking that I may start trying to sell some of my work. Maybe I could post pictures on ebay/craigslist/etsy. We'll see. Here is another set I did. I'm also working on some dinosaur pictures. Let me know if you have any suggestion as to how I should go about starting or other ideas for paintings! If they don't end up selling I can always give them as gifts or just keep them for myself.
