Wow! Saffron the Tiny Elephant is at it again! She has decided to hide
in this bird's nest and make it her own. Can you see her? Or can you
only see her cute pink toes?

Ren Rabbit was one of the early members of the Critter Mafia. As a samurai, she helped protect the borders from the evil puppies who were after their carrot crops.

For this month's @artistryink_challenge warrior themed prompts, I thought it would be fun to imagine where these warriors would be within the History of the Critter Mafia. (a story series I have been developing).

a sad looking child Medusa holds a hamster cage which contains a stonified hamster, flipped upside down. Her shadow is a sinewy, creepy version of her with evil snake hair, and there is a wiggly red/black text treatment of the word MONSTROUS in the background.

A digital illustration of 4 students in school uniform around a table in a classroom. The girl on the right is pointing on a part of an open book, seemingly teaching her fellow students something. The boy on her helf is sitting, looking confused with his hands on his head. Next to him on his left is a girl with a skeptical expression, hands on her hips also looking at the open book. The last student, a boy on the leftmost part has his arms crossed and is also looking at the open book.

Digital illustration of young Black girl lying on field of grass and dandelion flowers. Her body is cropped to focus on face and upper torso. Her face displays a relaxed emotion as she gazes up at the clouds that cast shadows in various shapes. Her hair is done in two Afro puffs and she wears an orange-yellow graphic T-shirt that reads "illustrator and samillu.ca," referring to occupation and website of the artist.

My first time participating in #kidlitartpostcard day! We had a lovely warm Monday here in Toronto which inspired this sunny piece. (Fingers crossed for good weather going forward.)
