Oktober-ferret anyone? 🍻An older piece again. True story, one of my personal ferrets *loves* beer. I have to keep my eye on her if there's an open drink around... 😝

(No I don't let her drink it. She's underage.)

Little Lego dude is just a bit surprised by their current situation...

I'm one of those weirdos who loves candy corn - and those candy pumpkins. 🎃 And so does this little guy!
PS - older piece, but I finally got around to finishing it this fall. 😅

Ever wondered what a weasel skull looks like? 💀 Slightly elongated craniums and plenty of solid carnivore teeth for these apex predators!

Someone hasn't quite mastered riding a broom this witchy season. Don't worry, rat friend, you've got this!

"Bro... where my tail?..." Good question, Slowpoke. Good question indeed. PS - Slowpoke is my fave pokemon.

Banana python split anyone? 🐍 🍨My beloved banana pastel ball python, Aloy, was the muse for this piece. :3

The very expressive Mr Knocknado the ferret. A solidly built boi with just the slightest bit of a grumpy face, and a really big sweetie. <3

Started this one over a year ago but finally got around to finishing it.

Here comes the fall! 🍂 Heralding the season is one beautiful ratty who has found a whimsical use for the leafs shifting colors.

*Apologies to any arachnophobic folks scrolling.*

My illustration of a post (reposted below on my profile) that delights the crap out of me. My tarantulas would never let me put a chip on their head...

Red-winged blackbirds are the heralds of spring to me. When their distinctive calls by the wetlands and lakes can be heard, it's officially the end of winter.

LOOK! A NEW PIECE! Finally working on scanning in and watermarking recent illustrations - like a frigging adult. 🤣

Not my typical style, but I've been playing "Monster Hunter Stories" and felt inspired by the icons.
