New Series



Oh yes I've been at it again! A while ago I promised you a new animal, and instead I'm giving you a peek at my new series! I had drawn out this beaver some time ago, simply because I wanted to draw an animal with some fun teeth. As I looked at the finished picture it just seemed like it was missing something.

Bored I started making multiple beavers and then it hit me like a ton of bricks. What about a mommy and baby beaver!? And then with that I began making mommy and baby animals instead of my usual solitary animal. I figured while I was at a new series I would test out something else I've wanted to do for some time now. 

Patterned backgrounds.

Yep. You heard me. My solid colored backgrounds are a thing of the past! (at least for this series anyway!) You can now find stripes, plaids, polka dots and perhaps even more down the road. The backgrounds are muted so as to not distract from the animals, but I kind of think it's pretty neat! --Please feel free to shout out your opinions on the new look!

These four sets of mommies and babies are up in my shop. Be on the look out for new sets as I have two in progress at the moment, and lots of doodles for other pairs! Oh I am in love with these guys! Hope you are too!
