I feel like what is selling right now are reboots of ANYTHING from the 80s and 90s. Basically I am being sold my childhood when it comes to TV, LEGO and fashion and I am not hating it! It's like as I approach 40, my life is coming full circle. One of the things I have seen a resurgence of is TV shows like "Care Bears". Who remembers the Care Bear stare?! This was one of my favourite shows when I first came to Canada in 1988 and I have fond memories of plunking myself right in front of our TV and watching it all the time!
The designs were all drawn with acrylic paint and a very fine nail art brush and honestly took about 2 hours to do one hand, but I think they turned out pretty cute. I chose to do Bedtime, Grumpy, Cheer and Tenderheart Bear bellies and though I wish Bedtime turned out a little bit better, as a group they look pretty cute! My boss recognized them during a meeting and actually commented on them to me afterwards!
What were your favourite childhood cartoons? I also loved Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Captain Planet, Smurfs and of course My Little Pony!
