The word this week is Hurry!
This little guy is doing his best to hurry, but you know I think this old adage is true. Let that wild hare hurry all he wants, my little turtle is going to take his sweet time.



I painted this for my daughter’s 4th grade teacher. Stephen Hawking is the class turtle-and with only 3 legs he gets around pretty good, actually. We kept him for the weekend and he was a cutie!

Prints of Stephen will be available in the shop soon!
very nice!
I think turtles are kind of cute, and yours definitely is! I love that you posted some of your process. Steven Hawking is pretty cute, too
