hiya! some six or seven years ago, i requested that you paint an andaman treepie — my favorite bird — and then asked you to put the drawing on redbubble. i used the phone case until yesterday, when i got the replacement! in that time, i took my phone to eight different countries, graduated college twice, and got dozens of compliments on my phone case — and, this winter, finally saw one of these guys in the wild for the first time in years!! i just thought it was really cool to see how, well, well-loved he got. thank you so much for the beautiful art!

oh wow.

I remember drawing this bird and you asking to have it up on the store! Gosh, that was a while ago. I keep forgetting that I still have redbubble. I got the notification that something was bought the other day and went 'huh, like those ones that got requested'.

I'm so glad that it's served you well and that you've gotten so much done! Faded as it is the birdy is still there and I hope the new one can last just as long. I'm happy that you've gotten to see a treepie as well!! It's been a long six years, I've been to England twice now to see my girlfriend, gotten a new job and done so much more with my art than I thought I would. Drawing these birds has been a steady constant and something to look forward to. No idea when it's going to end nowadays lol it just keeps going on and on.

Thank you as well for sharing this update, I really appreciate it ❤️

if you're currently taking requests for birds, would you be interested in drawing a puerto rican lizard cuckoo? either way, i wanted to say that you took a request from me once before -- an andaman treepie -- and i got it on a phone case and treasure it so much, so thank you so much for that!!

I am open for requests, just currently on a break. Work has been wild the last couple of weeks that even if I wasn't already planning on it I would have needed to lol.

But I am really glad to hear this! I remember enjoying drawing the treepie and it makes me happy to know you've enjoyed it as well after so long.

I've got a bunch lined up for when I start back up but I'll put this bird up in front. It'll be #501 and hopefully near the beginning of March.
