O is for Otter with an Oh so Delicious Doughnut!



O is for Otter with an Oh so Delicious Doughnut

I illustrated a Doughnut for my first letter O as scene below.


I was not thinking of tying into the letter at the time, but just using the doughnut for the shape of an O. What I discovered later is that there are many fans of doughnuts including children.

So to make it more whimsical and to tie into the letter O, an otter would make it far more fun than a simple still life with a cup of coffee. 

I even added more sprinkles to the doughnut to sweeten it up!
