A Funny Request

J my little bro, loves guinea pigs and a while ago, he requested I draw him a guinea pig playing sport. He told me to google it to get the idea :P

You can google it yourself but it's basically the phenomenon of people photoshopping guinea pigs to look like they're playing sports. I decided to tackle a guinea pig playing basketball, since it's J's favourite. First needed the ever placid Vanilla to do some reference poses for me, aahh she's such a sweet easy going thing!



And I was set
The outcome...

He he
It made me giggle anyway!

J also saw this rad cardboard frame, courtesy of the lovely Heather, hanging in my apartment, it's done through a company called la la land! So the frame I made above, by J's request, is very much an inspired/copied version of the la la land one!

Talking of Lalaland, I not so recently went to the Finders Keepers market down in Brisbane which was fun and picked up these rad mini art prints from the la la land table



I also got to met the wonderfully talented Lauren Carney, who just recently blogged about her finders keepers day. She super pretty and does super awesome art and I think I gushed just a little too much! oops

P.S I totally forgot to blog about the recent guinea pig updates...must do, it's a cute surprise!

Update!

1) Mum, just rang me to tell me that skittles the Guinea Pig had babies! Unfortunately one didn't make it, but fingers crossed for the other little survivor. I've never seen a baby Guinea Pig before but Mum said they are totally cute and are born with their eyes open and fur and are much bigger than you would imagine. Looking forward to havinga hold next weekend I'm down there!

2) I miss Ben terribly! I've been emailing him everyday and usually with a photo. Took lots of photos the other day and one made it as my new profile pic, hurrah!
fee aka burntfeather aka me!

3) Which reminds me, Ben is just over halfway through his first stint, so in under 3 weeks I get to see him, weeee!

4) I have been going back through my old journal that I wrote whilst living in Japan, gee it's funny! Reliving memories, ahhh and most importantly getting some ideas for our trip back there in June, can't wait! On a side note, when googling for my old livejournal blog "feeinjapan" there is another identically named journal on blogger *gasp* I'm sure there can't be room for two fee's in Japan!

So that's my update. Tomorrow is Easter and I'll be working on more of my surprise costume!
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
