3 Blind Mice   by Joni Nickrent   copyright 2011
Yep, these 3 shadey meece's are all about cheese...the yellow stuff and the stuff smiles are made of! Who can resist a smile like that! LOL
From Sketch
To "pops" of color

These cats, oops I mean mice are as cool as can be as they strut their stuff with tails still intact...at least until the Farmer's Wife shows up!  
Smile and Say Cheese, Please...The perfect way to create a sunshiny day!

W.I.P. 3 Blind Mices, Meeses...You Gotta Love 'em To Pieces!

3 Blind Mice Sketch    by Joni Nickrent   copyright 2011
The 3 blind mice are on the loose in the world of Pop Art Minis Nursery Rhyme Time fun...and since the Farmer's Wife is no where in sight this could result in some colorful "meeses" mayhem.  Dressed in silly hats, sunglasses and soon to be brightly colored t-shirts...maybe even with some fun sayings...these happy characters have mischief written all over their faces.  
Stay tuned as the rhyme unfolds...you never know what twists and turns it might take! 
Their future's so bright they gotta where shades!

It's Official! Jack and Jill Made It Up and Down The Hill Without A Spill...A Perfect Pop Art Mini Ending!

Jack and Jill    by Joni Nickrent    copyright 2011
It's been a bit of a challenge to get my Jack and Jill Nursery Rhyme Time mini completed, but I'm happy to announce it's done and it was sure alot of fun! And I with a twist away from the traditional ending I am also happy to report  that Jack and Jill made it up and down the hill without a single spill! Oh, I do love happy endings...or maybe I need to do a second version that's not quite as neat...a spill down the hill repeat?  NO, I didn't think so either! 

Now that Jack and Jill are complete I'm off on my next Nursery Rhyme Time Adventure...Pop Art Mini style. 
I'm thinking we just might see the 3 Blind Mice...Nice?

Shared on this week's Whimsical Wednesday!

W.I.P. Jack and Jill Go Up and Down the Hill...Wonder If They Can Avoid A Spill?

Jack and Jill Sketch   by Joni Nickrent  copyright 2011
It's a sketch sneak peek featuring Jack and Jill
I wonder if this time they will avoid a spill
From the looks of things it just could be
a work in progress so we'll just have to see.
But, with smiling faces and a butterfly too
I'm hoping for a happy ending...how about you?
Next up the "pops" of color!

Old King Cole   by Joni Nickrent   copyright 2011
From Sunday Sketches in pencil on paper
To a fun and fancy colorful caper
It's Old King Cole that merry old soul
Whimsical, jolly and not one bit droll!
A close up view is he looking at you?
The King is complete a royal feat.
hmmmm...what next?
If you had to choose...the next rhyme that debuts
Which from these 3 would it be?
Hickory Dickory Dock
Rub-A-Dub-Dub
Jack and Jill

Little Bo Peep...Sketching Out The Details...A Work In Progress!

Little Bo Peep   by Joni Nickrent   Copyright 2011
Sharing a sneak peek of Little Bo Peep.  A sketch inspired by a vintage and beautiful painting called "Sweet Bo Peep", by famed artist illustrator, Maud Humphrey Bogart
Sweet Bo Peep  by Maude Humphrey Bogart
This latest edition to the Pop Art Minis Nursery Rhyme Collection is a bit of a departure from the last 3 drawings that have already been completed.
I'm not sure that she will remain a part of this more whimsical collection or maybe she will be the beginning of another more romantic Nursery Rhyme collection.  We'll see as the sketch progresses and the "pops" of color appear. 
Little Bo Peep...sketch...work in progress. Waiting for color!
Stay tuned as Little Bo Peep continues her search to find her elusive sheep...maybe I need to make her eyes bigger....hehehe!

The Adventures of Mother Goose...She's On The Loose in The World of Pop Art Mini

Come join me on an adventure...full of rhyme time fun
Humpty Dumpty, Little Miss Muffet...soon something for everyone.
It's the Adventures of Mother Goose and all  her amazing friends
It's the world of Pop Art Minis...sometimes make believe and pretend
Filled with magical characters, some mixed up turned around.
But always "popping" with color and definitely smile bound!
So if you'd please allow me, I'd like to share with you
My Pop Art Minis version of Mother Goose, it's true!
From Start To finish!

Little Miss Muffet...From Sunday Sketch To "Pops of Color"

Little Miss Muffet    by Joni Nickrent    copyright 2011
Little Miss Muffet makes her colorful debut
"Poppin" with color in shades of pink orange and blue
Her long golden locks and floral print dress
Are perfect and neat not one sign of a mess.
But that silly spider with the tiny top hat
Will soon sit down and change all that
And Miss Muffet will be off her tuffet in a flash
Running away...the Nursery Rhyme dash!

From Sunday Sketch to colorful completion!
I'm really enjoying this Rhyme Time fun!
Here's a peek of another sketch I've begun!
Can you guess who she is?
