Mud Flap Jack
Knew where all the local mud holes
where at!
His mama tried to keep him clean
at him often she would scream
"Jack you best come back here
as clean as when you left here!"
Jack had magic sneakers that stayed
clean no matter what he did!
Mud Flap Jack such a special little kid.
he he he he!!
Happy Week to all.

Mud Flap Jack is adorable. I can relate not that I was a mud lover. My hair always was nicely done, after coming from outside my hair was all over the place. Sometimes, my mom wasn't amused.
I have a little gift for you on my Wednesday post.
Oh, Mud Flap Jack reminds me of myself when I was a kid. Accept, maybe he is a little more mindful of his safety? ;) I was the type of kid who always jumped before looking. Mud Flap Jack, on the other hand, looks as if he knows exactly what he is jumping into! Cute illustration, Vanessa! I love it!
Sa-weeet! Where can we get some of those sneakers? On e-bay? An etsy shop?
Oh Vanessa, Mud Flap Jack is SUPER FUN! I wish I had that little cowboy's energy :))
As always, you are a gem!!
Happy week to you too as well, V!
xxoo
Cute,love the teeth, looks like Mud Flap Jack has lots of fun.
So mischievous is he! Very cute and fun. :)
He is fantastic!!! Hehehe, everyone would be so happy if we just went out and had as much fun as Mud Flap Jack. :D Lovely work, as always!
Be still my heart for Mud Flap Jack!!
You've got to love a boy with a grin like that!
The best thing about being a children's book artist is that you get to stay in touch with that child inside... Love it v!
Fantastic illustration. I like specially the face, the mouth with the visible gum, he, he.
Yippie, Jack seems to have a swell time.
Isn´t there something more funny, than to jump into mud.
Have a great week

I loves me some Mud Flap Jack! I wish I could find a pair of sneakers like his for myself. Of course, they'd have to be stiletto sneakers that stay clean, no matter how much wear they'd get during New York fashion week! HA!

He's got that mischievous smile. Like his momma told him to stay clean, but he played in the mud anyway. Very awesome. Love his expression and movement.

Where do you get this stuff? lol! Are you sure you're not a stand-up comedienne? You really could take your show on the road and make millions...I'd sell tickets for you! Wonderful illustration...lol!
no, Vanessa, YOU are amazing.
xxoo
Oh Nester, I woke up to your message, and just wanted you to know that I'm sending big hugs your way! I found that awesome Japanese proverb and I think it just captures exactly what I must always remember during the difficult times - so I am so happy that I found it to post this week of all weeks. Give yourself the gift to allow yourself to feel those emotions, move through them, and then "stand up eight" again soon. You know that I'm rootin' for ya way over here on the West (or Left coast as my No. Carolina friend calls it). xoxo - Shirley
Hey Vanessa! I was a Mud Flap Jack... except for those magic sneakers. I could still use a pair of those. I always buy a new pair and say " I'm keepin' these in perfect condition!" but, since they aren't the magic variety, they soon become old,worn and dirty. I actually had a red pair of Converse just like your adorable fellow. Great stuff Vanessa! God has truly blessed you with a special talent. I love stopping by and seeing what special treat you'll have in store. you never disappoint!
Brilliant V, just fantastic. And those teeth! Ha ha... long live Mud Flap Jack.
hey, hey i want to join jack. i used to be a top notch mud slosher back in the day. :) wonderful illustration, vanessa!
Hey, V!! How's life? Hope you're having as much fun as Mud Flap Jack... xx
Awww, I love MudFlap Jack. What a wonderful illustration! You can feel his personality shining on through! I hope his mom doesn't get too mad at him! heh heh! Love the action V!
The ultimate in impishness!
He he he! this is Funnn!!!
I used to do this all the time when I was a kid (I think that there isn't one single kid on Earth that doesn't love to do it! :D)
Another great piece for your hugeee colection of masterpieces! Have a great Weekend V.! :)
Kiss
We got no troubles, Life is de bubbles, UNDER da sea! Hahahaha!
Wahooooo, V! You're WHAT? Jack's comin over? AAAAHHHHH! Okay, okay, I'm gonna get everything saran wrapped real good and scotchguard our butts. Send Jackie Boy over! So EXCITED! We'll take extra good care of him for ya. Have fun in toyland, babe!
Lovely pic! Love his expression, the stitching details and his shoes (sorry, should probably say sneakers, but I'm a bit too British!)
Oh how fun! Where were those sneakers when we were kids? Love the colors and his smug expression! Mucho congrats on the book, that's wonderful!
