A pen and ink illustration of a bear sitting in and also covered in snow next to a snow covered pine tree. A tiny bird wearing a winter hat peeks out of the tree.

Yep. It snowed.

Photo of a small easel with a white board. Resting against the board are cut outs of painted birds and their perches

Some of my fave Birbs from January's #birbfest. Paintings cut out and sitting on the easel. Collage them together or straight up on the wall? #birbfest2026 #oilpaint

Screenshot of the Procreate gallery on an iPad. Multiple project stacks are visible in a grid, including folders titled “Puppy Love 2026,” “Funguary 2026,” “Cozy Critters 2026,” “Birbfest 2026,” “Tarot Cards,” “Art Studies,” “Food Art,” and others. The top right shows Procreate options like Select, Import, Photo, and a plus button.

Workspace check! 🗂️✨

Here’s my Procreate gallery where I’ve been keeping everything sorted; Puppy Love, Funguary, Cozy Critters, and my Birbfest folder. I love seeing all the projects stacked up like this 🐯💛

List of birds: Bronzewing Pigeon, Many-coloured rush tyrant, Razorbill, Golden-headed manakin, King Eider, Northern Emerald-toucanet, Steller's Sea Eagle, Andean cock-of-the-rock, Indian Paradise Flycatcher, American Purple Gallinule, Mountain Bluebird, Common Redpoll, White-eared Pheasant, Silver-eared Mesia, Short-eared Owl, Eurasian Wigeon, Spangled Cotinga, Tufted Jay, Red-legged Seriema, Dalmatian Pelican, Ornate Fruit Dove, Galah Cockatoo, Nuthatch, New Holland Honeyeater, Common Kingfisher, Common Cuckoo, Red-bearded Bee-eater, Little Penguin, Red Junglefowl, Oyster Catcher, Indian Peafowl

Finally had a moment to put all of my #birbfest2026 #CubistBirds creations onto one poster.
That was fun, I learnt a ton about these wonderful species and I love how they all look together
