A friend, (shipmate) every year sends out a reminder, "To be happy on the 4th, don't drink a fifth on the 3rd"

Wow, you even put your reflections on the balloons. It looks like you're having way too much fun! Keep it up! S-

Thank you Steve !!! I really appreciate your commenting on the reflection in the balloons. That tells me you actually looked very close to the details. Yes, I am having so much fun with this type of work. I am constantly thinking of various concepts. I find the more I do the more detail oriented I become. It upsets me so, when I have missed the obvious. I feel it's sorta therapeutical and keeps the mind from becoming stagnant. Thanks again !!!

I keep coming back to this, and the others, because aside from the obvious craftsmanship, they are hilarious!

I envision a series of these hanging in a children's gallery and already see the joy on their faces! Or how about a children's book, how fun! S-

Fun.

Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you Chuck !!! Sorry, it has taken me so long to reply as I have been away. These are fun to put together, as long as I get them close to being correct, such as light direction, shadows and contrast matching up for starters. Although, I always seem to miss something along the way of processing. I appreciate the comments and glad they put a smile to the face.

No worries! I've been away for two weeks and it feels like forever, but it's good to be home! S-
