Happy Earth Day! 🌎 🌱

To celebrate I decided to make some drawings for the #OurPlanetWeek2026 illustration challenge! Today’s prompt is ‘forests growing’ #opw26forests

It’s the last day of the #OurPlanetWeek2026 illustration challenge! Today’s prompt is ‘seeds sowing’ #opw26seeds and of course I had to draw one of my favorite seed sowing friends— ants! 🐜

🌍💚 Touch the ground for #OurPlanetWeek

I thought it would be fun to work on some #kidlit portfolio stuff while also celebrating our planet with this challenge.

I'll probably fall behind at some point but I will give it my best!

Touch the ground and feel her sigh,
A breath beneath the open sky.

Joining this year’s #OurPlanetWeek2025

Prompt 01: Touch the Ground
#OPW25Ground #LetsDrawTheChange

I discovered #ourplanetweek a bit late but I can’t wait to catch up!

The first prompt #touchtheground made me immediately think of putting my hands in the earth. I can’t wait to plant more pollinator friendly plants this year!

Second prompt of #OurPlanetWeek is Feel the Air.

I immediately imagined a bird with its wings outstretched, able to move thanks to the air flowing between its feathers. This is a Common Kestrel, made with colored pencils.

Feel the air #ourplanetweek2025

💨 A gentle breeze can shift your mood, calm your thoughts, and bring peace to the chaos.

The air invites you to be present, to embrace the calmness that comes when you surrender to the flow.🍃

🐚⛵ Hear the ocean—outside it’s buzzing with life 🪽, inside it’s wrapped in silence
It’s a reminder that in life too, we need both—the outer joy and the inner stillness—to truly ride our little boat through the waves.
Balance is where peace lives. 🕊️✌🏻🕉️
