D. Hummel, primarily self-taught, is no stranger to a watercolor brush. Combining her years of painting talent with a silly sense of humor to create a children's book felt quite natural. She wants kids to giggle and laugh at the characters, use their imagination, and pretend there really is a pig wearing purple pants. Growing up is inevitable, but using your imagination with creative vigor should never get old. Visit danetteswatercolors.etsy.com for other original paintings and prints.
