"At Least the Monkey is Happy" Watercolor by Kathy Michels

I am having such a fun time with this piece. I finally decided on a background and finished drawing that in. I will keep the carnival somewhat washed out so it doesn't overshadow the real story. It is always such fun and sometimes a real challenge to name a piece. One day I was looking at her disgusted little face and glanced at the monkey and there it was "At Least the Monkey is Happy".

Oh my! Was this a date that had gone wrong? Brother and sister waiting for wayward parents to show up? Or simply tired after a long and obviously fruitful day? Love it!

Great title--great commentary.
