"The pattern on its belly appears to be a frightening face. Weak foes will flee just at the sight of the pattern."

Thanks to this fella, I have a permanent association between cobras and the color purple. Completely ruined my chances of a career in herpetology or snake identification lmao.

Some native Illinois animals and plants that I drew for a work event earlier this month! Uncolored versions of these were printed out as a coloring activity for kids (and fun-loving adults :3). It was a really fun time! I think the butterfly was the most popular choice to color in.

Animals clockwise from upper right: Monarch Butterfly, Plains Garter Snake, Boreal Chorus Frog, White-Tailed Deer, Red-Tailed Hawk

Plants clockwise from upper right: Common Milkweed, Cardinal Flower, Compass Plant, Big Bluestem, Blue Flag Iris

Something I found that I don't remember drawing. It was titled "Exosoul".

"My tail is long with lots of rings It makes it fun to Swing on things!" -Cleo the Bush Baby

One of the Beanie Boos that got Ty sued for copyright infringement! Cleo is a pretty blatant knock-off of Aurora's YooHoo... but we don't love her any less for it, right? :3

"A very common sight in grasslands and such. It flicks its tongue in and out to sense danger in its surroundings."

I really enjoyed giving this snek a goofy little smile. Think about it: Ekans has its mouth open so often, but when does it truly get to smile?

Finally finished working on a big project, so I feel like I can focus on personal art again! I drew this white-tailed deer a million years ago, and she's just now getting color.

"Watch me swing from tree to tree I'm so darn cute, don't you agree?" -Bubblegum the Lemur

Originally her catchphrase was "pink is beautiful!" just like Bubblegum the Koala. But other versions of this plush got a more unique poem.

Victoria crowned pigeon! :3

Found this birdy languishing in a sketchbook, so I decided to give her some love. Experimenting with funky color highlights, cuz why not?

"It has the stamina to fly all day on its broad wings. It fights by using its sharp beak."

I've always had a soft spot for Fearow. They remind me of big scruffy anhingas!

favorite word?

Hmmm, I don't think I have one! Does "lol" count? I use lol waaay too much haha.

.flow week day 4: wildcard! One of my favorite areas in the game, it manages to feel both restive and deeply unsettling.

edit: Lmao, the word I meant was "restful"

.flow week day 3: fave location. My favorite location is the rainbow maze!

Not sure if I have time to do the other days' prompts. But I really wanted to do some art of my favorite world :3

"Keep on swingin’!" -Coconut the Monkey

Trying not to spend too much time on these backgrounds... So enjoy the poorly drawn palm fronds lol.

"It flaps its small wings busily to fly. Using its beak, it searches in grass for prey."

I feel like Spearow gets a bad rap because of the anime, but this birb is just a misunderstood babey.

"Cute n’ clumsy!" -Waddles the Penguin

Cool dog girl I saw in a dream!
