Today's painting is of a little duck in a different but equally iconic style of shoes, Mary Janes. A classic shoe, I've found that ducks look just as cute in them as they do in Chucks. This little one needed a balloon to balance things out.. a red balloon :) When thinking about what to title this painting, I was reminded of the song 99 red balloons by Nena. It was a popular song when I was a teenager and I remembered it begins with the line "Do you have some time for me?" And so the title was born.
Naturally I had to look the song up and then watch the video.. and and then read a bit about it too. It has an interesting history and is actually popular in 2 languages, English and German. If you'd like to read more, check out this link
