HONY colored pencil 07/21/2017 This was done from a super cute baby from a Humans of New York post. I had to draw that beaming face! Done in Prismacolor and a little watercolor wash, then adjustments in PS.

Red-eyed tree frog 10/20/2015 Pen and marker. Red-eyed tree frogs hide their colorful bits when they sleep, to blend in with the greenery. When predators do find it, the frog uses the colored bits to startle and astonish, hopefully giving the frog time to leap away! Progress GIF: Paper re-use is ecologically-friendly.

Axolotl 04/15/2014 Watercolor and sharpie CAN work together. Axolotls are a neotenic salamander, meaning they retain characteristics of their young forms. They can be triggered by environmental changes to fully develop into a land-dwelling, gill-less, adult form, but this causes them stress and shortens their lifespan. They can be kept as pets, and also come in speckled, earthy colors. They can also regrow their limbs! They are so talented.

Lynx 04/14/2014 Mixed media (marker, colored pencil, pen, and PS). Canadian lynxes have gigantic furry feet that act as snowshoes. That makes them more prepared for Canadian winter than I was!

Caught 01/14/2013 Prismacolor pencils. She is very even-tempered. I took enough photos of the process to make a progress-GIF, which I want to do more often.
