Mid-century Fun

Here are my three rectagles made on Procreate. What fun. I confess, I did "undo" several times, and it's such a habit that I didn't realize I was doing it until way into the drawing. I stopped after I realized and made some wonky celery, but I like the result.

Here are my three rectangles done by hand. I decided to make them all into one piece, a sandwich and the face behind it, or is it the sandwich's face? 🧐

I didn't do the gramaphone because I have been wanting to do color-blocks with a godess. I very much used "undo," and I'm sharing the initial result after the first 20 seconds so you can see what I took into consideration. Now, I do like my initial drawing. She's very cute, and I'm keeping her, but not for this purpose.

Final piece. Not so MCM, but I do love her.

Here are the frames, and they were so much fun. I did less linework, and I have to laugh at the bunny. What bunny? So true, the bunny looks more like a pink poof. I would definitely use an elaborate frame for that bunny and hang it in my hallway.

The coffee set gave me some fits, and I think it's good to have fits when creating. Fits mean I am growing and having to problem solve. I chose a funky shaped coffee set and then exaggerated the shape. Definitely wonky.

The doors were great fun. I had the idea to place them like a log cabin quilt block pattern. It's not a successful as I hoped. Maybe I need to start with windows. I love it anyway. Maybe I'll make more.
