Peekaboo Platypus Pops In

A chubby platypus peeks in from a square frame, her bill spreading wide as if she’s smiling just for you. With her two big webbed flippers reaching forward, she almost looks like she’s ready for a splashy wave hello. Tiny tufts of fur dot her cheeks, and her bright eyes sparkle with mischief. The lines curve smoothly, making her look soft and gentle, like she’s about to wiggle her flippers and wiggle right out of the page.

Nothing distracts her—she stares straight ahead, beak up and curious. Every detail, from her rounded cheeks to the ripples around her tiny nostrils, asks for bright colors. The big open spaces around her bill and paws make room for bold, confident strokes. She sits playfully in her square window, inviting kids to fill her world with color and imagination.

Fun Fact!

The leathery bill of a platypus is very flexible and can bend as it digs through mud and gravel.
