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). #artistryinkchallenge2026 prompt SAMURAI hosted by @artistryink_challenge and @silvana_blackink_art #artistryinkchallengesamurai #inkandwatercolor #kidlit #kidlitartist #kidlitauthor #artistryinkchallenge #artistryinkchallengeapril2026

Cyclops Polyphemus is whipping up a batch of satyr-filled cupcakes with his favorite wooly sheep... just in case 'Nobody' pops by again for a visit. 😂 What do you do when there are two really great challenges going on in March that you haven't had time to participate in but want to do at least one of the prompts before the end of the month? And what if they are REALLY not challenges most people would ever combine or mash up? You do a mash up anyway!! 🤣 Make sure to swipe to see the original vintage book cover that this is inspired by! #artistryinkchallengemarch2026 prompt Cyclops Polyphemus hosted by @artistryink_challenge and @silvana_blackink_art #vintagebookweek26 prompt Fun To Cook Book cover hosted by: @geeksarecool @le_facciotte @elizabeth.leyk.illustration @sarafandrey_illustrations @valeriaillustrates @moniquedong @artoflaurieb #inkandwatercolor #handdrawn #picturebookauthor #picturebookartist #kidlit #worldwatercolorgroup #artistryinkchallengecyclopspolyphemus #vintagebookweek

—perhaps I will eventually reconcile what I am learning about light, shading, and value with atmospheric perspective, so as to focus on the foreground. Wishing I had not omitted our baby dogwood tree from the middle ground—the composition needs it!

A detailed illustration of a stag beetle appears centered on a textured sheet of off-white paper. The insect is depicted from above with its legs spread outward and its body aligned vertically. Its defining feature, a pair of large curved mandibles extending upward from the head, forms an elegant horn-like shape that frames the top of the composition. The beetle’s body is rendered with a combination of fine ink lines and soft watercolor washes. The head and thorax appear darker, shaded in cool charcoal tones with subtle highlights that give the exoskeleton a slightly metallic appearance. The abdomen is lighter, transitioning into warm brown and amber hues that fade softly across the segmented shell. Thin spiny legs extend outward from the body, each joint carefully drawn with delicate lines that capture the insect’s natural structure. The mandibles curve inward at the tips, giving the beetle its distinctive silhouette. Small splatters and stains of watercolor surround the insect, suggesting a naturalist’s sketchbook or field study where ink and pigment have lightly bled into the paper. Behind the beetle, faint tan stains and irregular washes spread across the page like dried pigment or aged paper marks. The background remains mostly empty, allowing the insect’s form and intricate anatomy to stand out clearly. The overall effect resembles a scientific illustration or entomological study, combining artistic expression with observational detail.
