I've always liked it when total strangers show up and submit artwork done in media that have never been represented in previous books. Or when they feature rarely seen creatures.

If you know an offsite friend or two, let them know and help to diversify the art book please? 🥺

An illustration of a black and white scaled California kingsnake. There are blueish-purple lupine flowers and hand-shaped green leaves growing in the snake’s coils. There are small grey-ish blue butterflies flying around the kingsnake and on the lupine. It is illustrated on a light blue-purple background.

An illustration of a bearded vulture on a light orange background. This is an ivory and light orange colored vulture with a feathered head, and black markings on the face. It has long black feathers growing over its sharp beak, giving it its name. It has dark grey/black wing and talk feathers with a white stripe on each feather. It is holding a bone in its mouth.

I definitely want to make a horseshoe crab design :)

I’ll probably make a new beetle design at some point, but the design in its current form as a patch most likely will be phased out!

Thank you I really appreciate it!!!

Thank you so much!

yeah!!!

Thank you!!!
