Chalky the Guinea Pig
by Jane on Friday, 8th August 2008

Guinea pig chalk artJust use your imagination, okay?

Our son is very talented and we want to keep our illusions about that intact.

Plus, my mother always told me that if you can’t say something nice, then don’t say anything.

So it’s a guinea pig, because Mr Bump said so.

And if you can find something nice to say, we’d really really appreciate it.
Seriously.

    Jane,

    It is absolutely a work of art! I would frame it and put it in his room.
    I loved how you took a picture of it…we have an art gallery and kids Art by far rules as far as I’m concerned!

    The artist’s choice of complementary colors is genius. And the guinea pig’s small intestines are accurately rendered. :)
