haha it is sooooo true! They used to use goats in Topanga to do the brush clearance and they use them at the Getty Villa today. They will eat almost anything but your goat is the cutest goat and his surroundings are so pretty, i love your colours :)

Ellen Morrow said...

So is he taking his cute little green hat off so it won't get wet?..or is he picking it up to eat it!

My family briefly had a goat when I was growing up... until it ate all the shrubbery. I loved that goat. And I really like this illustration, too. Excellent!

Really? They had a goat? And they kept it in the HOUSE??? Haha, this is great! He's a cute little guy, though. And evidently, pretty clean, too.

He is so cute and love how you have created the extra effect here.
The lively animated bubbles and eye soothing wall tiles are the evidences of great little details you made for play, share and ponder.

Your goat is so cute! But you're right- they do eat anything!!! Craig wanted one for our back yard but I said positively not!!!

Poor goat, he can't help it! Love this - it's cute and funny, and these colors are yummy. The green and orange really make it pop.

I must say - I've never been a goat fan but I found this guy really cute! :D Maybe he had to chew on the towel to get rid of the soapy aftertaste?

Nice work as usual!

fashion fucsia said...

This goat is really cute!! Great idea and funny!! I'm sorry but I can't stop of laughing... I thinking about the goat eating everything in its path.. ha ha ha!! :)

Jim Rowland Creations said...

I don't know what I llike most - the half-eaten soap on the floor, or the fact the goat is having a bath. Very funny!

Gail said...

I wonder why he didn't take a bite out of his own hat,very cute.

Jennifer DeDonato said...

Likes to take little bites of his items

tusen said...

:) I just wanted to say that he seems a very polite goat, eating only a bite of everything.
Lovely mood and colours.
