The dragon, having abandoned their lifelong compulsion to amass treasure, embarked on a new career as a torch singer. They do weddings, ribbon-cutting ceremonies, and bat mitzvahs. #illustration #illustrationartists #ink #drawing #monsterart #creaturedesign #dragon #torchsinger #sketchbook #kidlitart

the oviraptor looks pleased with its new chickadee egg

i’ve been enjoying watching a pair of black capped chickadees raising their little ones in this gorgeous bird house made by Rob Ek. This morning the traffic to and from the house was conspicuously absent so i peeked in. the family has moved on, leaving behind one egg that didn’t hatch and a charming nest made of moss and lint and gray human hairs… #birdhouse #backyardnature #blackcappedchickadee

the death of the jabberwock was such a frabjous event, even the borogroves were a little less mimsy. #jabberwocky #borogroves #lewiscarroll #illustrationartists #creaturedesign

After the long healing process, they used the flying carpet to get the bird comfortable with the sky again. #illustration #illustrationartists #fantasyart #creaturedesign #monster #fantasyanimal #visualstorytelling #flyingcarpet #animalrescue

when i ran away from home to join the circus, the maestro of clowns made me work ten hours cleaning the elephant enclosure and then had me taken home. i never learned his name but i will remember his face til i die. #clown #circus #illustration #character #darkart
