Today’s watercolor: Pooh’s Picnic

I’ve been loving Classic children’s book illustrations lately. After my watercolor of Kiki’s Delivery Service last week I decided to look at the work of E. H. Shephard. I really enjoy his work, and I’ve been enjoying learning about his life.

It’s the tail-end of 花見 or hanami season here, so I like to think that Christopher Robin took his friends out for a little flower viewing picnic 🙂 This piece is of course based on Shephard’s classic Pooh from the books with A.A. Milne. What do you think?

    Classic Pooh is the ONLY Pooh. Disney’s is a heresy. Shepherd was the master of line. You’re doin’ good!
