Miss Piggy's Art Treasures: Ursus Ridiculus

Ursus Ridiculus

It's time for more Muppets! This is another in the lovely Miss Piggy's Art Treasures series, featuring a spoof on Fozzie Bear. There are all kinds of little inside Muppet jokes, if you're a member of the muppet-lover club...

You can see some writing in Noodler's Eternal Hunter Green ink, for any of you fountain pen ink nuts out there. This is a pretty true-looking sample, on my screen.

Yay Muppets! They make me happy.

Miss Piggy's Art Treasures: Pig Before a Mirror / Picasso

My little gazpacho! Ha!

Mustn't cover the dressed-up Kermit!

The place where you're supposed to put the stamp has a wonderful screening of Kermit from another postcard - how could I cover up that Muppet loveliness?
