Stirring the Pot

I was just finishing this mixed media painting when I saw the Illustration Friday word this week, "Stir".  It must be serendipity.  As you can see, the proverbial pot is going to be stirred.  That's what happens when you invite a pirate to tea.
I painted this from an old photo of my kids.  However, as always, it started to tell it's own story, so I let it follow it's own path. 
I will be putting it in my Etsy shop tomorrow.  I was going to do it today, but I forgot to sign it!

He he! So precious! I was talking about having a tea party just yesterday with my nieces! They wanted it to be princess themed, so I dont think pirates will be invited :)
