Cowcow and Chicken save the animals
in Blog
Currently: feeling under the weatherA few months ago, I made this illustration and put it up on my Flickr account.
A few weeks ago, I got an e-mail from Julie of Sew It’s For You telling me she borrowed my illustration and turned it into a towel for her friend.
Isn’t it cute? I think she really did them justice!
Cowcow and Chicken are my own original characters. They’re actually me (Chicken) and my boyfriend (Cowcow). As mushy (or weird?) as it sounds and as hesitant as I am to put this little tidbit on such a public space, Cowcow and Chicken are our pet names for each other. Never mind why.

I am in the process of photographing and writing up item descriptions for the stuff to be listed on my Etsy shop some time within this week. This is just a sneak peek at what’s coming, except this particular item isn’t going to be included as I messed it up when I sprayed it with protective acrylic glaze and forgot to weigh down the newspaper it was lying on. A gust of wind blew it face down on the newspaper, causing the newsprint to stick to the wet image. Sigh. Oh well. Lesson learned!

The super sweet and talented Lori of Fresh Picked Whimsy gave me a blogging award and it’s my first, too! I put it next to my illustration of a little girl for better presentation :P
Thank you, Lori! I’ll have to sleep on this first before deciding whom to pass it on to; I have a lot of favorite bloggers and it’s hard to pick just a few!

Regina thanks for posting it. Your CowCow and Chicken are too cute. I can’t wait to finish it for you…Thanks for letting me use your adorable illustration.
That’s so AWESOME! What a great picture, and a terrific tribute. Love the colors and characters. I just had me a big ol’ chuckle when I read they were you and your boyfriend. Sweet! My husband used to call me Dumb Bunny, and the best I could do to retort was to call him a Stupid Lizard. Now imagine THAT as a picture.
