Jacob is my animal lover... he has always loved animals, recently he has even told me that he is going to be a Veterinarian when he gets older. Which I didn't think was a good idea at first because he loves to kill things too. But then I remembered that Matt Crane (VET) is also a hunter. This thought also allowed me to have a dream about Jacob growing up, going on a mission and becoming a vet, moving to Salina with his WIFE KELSEY CRANE, and hunting with his father-in-law!
A GIRL CAN DREAM! ANYWAY...
Jacob is also my hunter, fisherman, and documentary watcher! Yes, there is such a thing as someone who just wants to watch Documentaries on EVERYTHING. He loves everyone of them especially anything to do with wildlife. I shouldn't even say especially because we were watching a documentary on where our food is grown in the US and how we are building on all of our farm lands, and I couldn't get him to go to bed.
Anyway, I decided to paint Jacob a picture. I have done a couple drawing with him and he is always so impressed so I figured I better do it now while he is still little and easily impressed! ;)
I haven't painted in a long time and I have never painted with Acrylic paints so I "googled it." Yes that is right, I had to google how to paint with Acrylic paints. I am glad I did because I would never have used the water bottle to keep my paint moist. I LOVE GOOGLE!
Anyway at this point "above" I was starting to get a little nervous. It looks more like Chewbacca than a bear. It is defiantly harder than it looks. I always tell my mom that I cheat, and I cheated on this one too, I looked at a picture from my phone to get the colors better. I also found that I didn't draw in upper teeth so I had to add those because he looked more like he was yawning than GROWLING!
Maybe I had a "Jacob" werewolf on the brain because I think he looks like a cross between a werewolf, bear, and a Wookie! I just noticed I didn't sign it, I will have to get out my paints and sign it... (I will sign it for you Mr. Johnson, you are missed, thanks for teaching me to love art!)
