I had an urge to paint checkerboard tile. No, seriously, that was the whole motivation. In retrospect, I could probably have satisfied that urge without three penguins, a bear, and a lemming, to say nothing of all that ruffled satin, but occasionally I outwit myself. (And yes. I know. Polar bears and penguins. I know. North is north and south is south, and ne'er the twain shall meet. I know. It never fails to amaze me that one can do a painting where all the animals are walking, talking, wearing clothes, and obviously not eating each other, and yet somebody will say 'Hey! Polar bears and penguins don't live in the same area!' as if that's the greatest violation of natural law going on in the painting. *cough* Right, sorry, carry on...)

Personally, I like the background most. It’s all great, but my favorite part are the banners. There so... mystic looking, somehow.
keep up the awsome art!
