Australian Animals - Step-stool

A gift for a two-year-old Girl. Came up with the concept or theme of Australian animals and did research and sketching. Found the step stool at a thrift store, sanded and cleaned it up with a fresh coat of paint. I kept to a more pastel color pallet but added the plum purple to make it pop a little.
