Another recycled drawing for today's #birbfest as I was busy drawing the Birdwhisperer monthly challenge and drawing two birds in one day seemed a bit much. Here's a Little Penguin from a few years ago but I think it is cute #BirbFest2026

day 25 of #birbfest2026 with the common kingfisher. this is probably one of my favourite birds. I've only seen it once while on a walk in the park, it was only for a fleeting moment but I still remember how happy it made me 🐦 #birbfest #art #birdart #sciart

Just a little guy

I have 0 energy today and it’s the last week of the month so I have 7 days to achieve 30 orders (I’m currently at 13). You’re probably wondering what I will do about that. I don’t know. Here’s a radish. That’s all I can manage today. Enjoy Shop: linktr.ee/thesunxix #illustration #art #artprints

Entered a design in the Threadless "Year of the Horse" Challenge. Never done this before, but I guess it's a way to get more visibility there? I know a few of you have accounts there, so go vote for my design if you happen to like it: www.threadless.com/year-of-the-...
