Playing ‘Possum
I have been seeing quite a few opossum lately. Unfortunately, most of them have been roadkill. Luckily, this morning I saw one scurry across the road into the woods! Go, little guy, go! I decided my next totem animal piece was going to be the opossum. I have completed the ink and will be working…

Winter Plans
The season is dying down. The snow has finally arrived and everything is now quiet. The animals have sought shelter and all the plants have wilted away.
