IF- Save
Save me a piece of Cake!!! Yumm Yumm! Just a few days away before I get older and I am not sure if I will save any cake! I did this illustration for a greeting card and I just love to paint little bugs.
Funny but I feel with today's economy its almost like we are told to eat cake instead of trying to get rid of this war and pay attention to the home front. The poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer! I cannot wait to cast my vote on this upcoming election and get rid of this horrible President!!!

Very lovely and serene. It's a special talent to take some of the ugliest creatures on earth (insects) and make them look cute and loveable.
Good job. Save me some cake too. . .

Well, sadly, the middle class is disappearing. Soon there will only be the "haves" and the "have-nots".
But on a happier note, this is a very cheerful illustration and I hope you have a very happy birthday. I love drawing litle bugs and creatures, too.
