My Good Housekeeping Print/Drawing

Hello, Bloggy Friends! I have always loved this drawing that was the cover for a 1931 issue of Good Housekeeping. (I found a copy of the actual magazine on Ebay)








I decided I wanted a copy of this print. I found it in one of my mail order catalogs, but WOW! They wanted $159.95 for it........................SO, I decided I'd draw my own............




And here it is. Not perfect, but it's good enough for me and my kitchen. :)

Closeup. I did it in watercolor.

Here's the side by side view. Can you spot the differences in them?



I did not draw the cookie cutter, and the blue bowl in my picture. And I could have done a better job on shaping the big bowl. hehehehehe. Also, I added cherries to the can behind the green cannister, and I made mine yellow.






I am going to have mine matted and framed just like the mail order print, and I'm going to hang it here in my kitchen.

Oh, there's another artist in the family. My seven year old granddaughter drew this for me, so I water colored it, and it greets me first thing every morning when I come into the kitchen to make my coffee. :)
