I painted Woofy and Mittens as a set; I think they make a nice fit for this week's category: Opposites. Original Woofy and Mittens belonged to my sister, Judy and I when we were babies. They are made from some thick, nuclear disaster-resistent rubbery plastic. From a child's perspective, an empty bottle of heavy duty detergent might make for a more suitable plaything. I can't imagine we actually ever amused ourselves with this dog and cat combo, but we must have because Mittens' eye has been busted shut for as long as I can remember, and they both have ink all over their faces (I blame myself.) I'll admit, Woofy and Mittens are a spooky looking heirloom, but I really like them. They are, without a doubt, part of my life's rich pageant.
