penguins!

I've been working on these for what seems like forever!!!  They were done on upcycled coasters (the thick ones from bars or restaurants) to be used as ornaments.  These are just the images -- I may photograph the actual ornaments but no time right now.  I had so many more to do but the rest will have to wait or become something else.  I just love penguins and these were a more whimsical, cartoonish, children's bookish style that seems to come out a lot with me.  Enjoy!!







Here are the original sketches...feel free to right click and copy (but just for personal use, k?)  They are my images but you can print them out for kids to color or to use in your own hand painted art.  Oh, there is a mouse, too. 
Thanks!
