It's Sunday again. =) Sunday's for me usually comprises of a slow lazy start and a cooked breakfast. This morning Ivy and I decided to make scrambled eggs. She was very good at stirring the mixture and everything was going well until I burnt the toast and the smoke alarms went off. Always a comedy of errors at our place!
Following breakfast I decided I'd do some drawing and decided to come on here to post it. Ivy asked me to draw her and in the end the only resemblance would be the hair and the button face but she is still very pleased!
I got the inspiration to draw this from one of my favourite books called "A Friend is Someone Who Likes You" by Joan Walsh Anglund. The illustrations are just beautiful but the story is also very sweet. I read it so often when I was a kid that I knew it off by heart but I have to say the memory hasn't held up!! I also found some pictures of the illustrations on this flickr page if you're interested.
I love my Sundays.
