Corporate Toad

This whole thing started as a weird little doodle I did while waiting for my toast to pop up. (Did you notice the coffee stain?) It was one of those doodles where you put a bunch of random dots on a piece of paper and then connect the dots and see what it looks like. My random sketch looked like a big toad mouth and my toast wasn’t done yet, so I added some other stuff. I ended up liking it so much I decided to redo it as a watercolor and here is the result.

Here’s some bonus trivia about this watercolor; I painted it while I was naked. I just finished more yard work. (UGH!) When I finished with the yard and came in, a load of laundry was going; I didn’t feel like fighting for the hot water. I knew I would have about an hour so, I took of my filthy clothes, put a towel on the fool and started painting. I didn’t set out to paint naked but I liked it! It felt so bohemian. I think everyone should try it.

Do you ever paint naked? Do you want to leave me some love?
