Good Dog

A dog ponders the human hand patting his head.

The other day I found myself wondering, what do animals think of the human hand? It’s such a weird appendage.

First Butterfly of Spring

A cabbage white butterfly makes to land on a drooping chive flower

Saw the first butterfly of the season in my tiny urban garden the other day. I was super chuffed. Hopefully it’ll come back when the cherry tomatoes are ready to be pollinated.

Hedgehog Sun

A spiky yellow hedgehog takes the place of the sun

If the sun were a hedgehog,
it would sleep all the time,
because they are nocturnal.

Elephant with a Flower

A blue elephant stares out solemnly, and salutes you with a flower

I miss doing a drawing every day. So I’m going to take it up again. That said, here is an elephant with a flower.

Forest Frenemies Holding Page

A holding page for a website, featuring many vectored woodland creatures

Here is a holding page for one of my future projects. It’s called Forest Frenemies. I’m in the process of turning all the creatures pictured into knitted finger puppets.

Blue Tit

Bluetit, perched on a snowy branch

It’s been a hard winter so far, and it’s only December. There have been terrible scenes of starling-related violence outside, and all kinds of species are turning on each other. But poking around, completely unchallenged, is one tiny blue tit. Maybe he’s too small, and none of the other birds see him as a threat.

Messy Eaters

Spider struggles with four knives and four forks

Spiders are messy eaters. It’s really hard to manage four sets of cutlery.

Scribbly Crow

What a shabby crow

Because crows tend to be very badly drawn, even in real life.

The Chase

A lizard man gives chase

“Come back!” cried the lizard man, “How could you betray me like this?”

But I did not go back, and I never discovered if he could regrow his arm as he said he could.

Long Pig

Do not eat long pig.
