Mama Cat and her kittens, Squirrel and Owl for an upcoming release by Kinnfolk! Excited to share more snippets 🦉 I took a step away from the screen and work traditionally for a rough lines pass, the final will be a mix of these and my typical digital painting.
www.kinnfolkmusic.com

Traditional pencil sketches of a mother cat playing a mandolin, her young kittens hanging on, and an excited squirrel playing a tenor banjo.

Pencil sketch and some digital studies of an owl, playing an Irish flute.

#rattober 10 - "Hello Rat"!

Two rats saying hello (by sniffing!) I think traditionally this may be done primarily at the rear end? Rats and rat caregivers, please chime in with your preferred greetings 🐭 #rattober2025

Hey everyone, we have some big news to share!

LACKADAISY - Last Call

A preview of Lackadaisy Season One - the Speakeasy is in its prime as Mitzi and the band regale the crowd with an original musical number, Last Call. This seemed like the ideal way to announce that Lackadaisy is now officially a ‪Glitch‬ Production!!

Professor Squeako is here to let you know that a healthy rat diet is composed of 60% treats and 40% of other treats! Don't ask him where he got his degree, just trust him!

6- Ratio!

#rattober #rattober2025

Drawing of a rat standing in front of a whiteboard. He's pointing to the board with a stick and pointing his finger up with the other hand. He has his mouth open, talking. On the whiteboard is written "HEALTHY RAT DIET" with a pie chart of 60% treats and 40% other treats.

Day 2: Lake Rat
I just wanted to do a little guy enjoying the water.

#rattober #rattober2025 #rats #art #artsky ##animalart #inktober

An illustration of a tannish colored rat hanging out of a white and red water tube in the lake, there's grass and lily pads around his. His arms are hanging like there is no effort. His tail is sticking out of the water behind him with water dropping from the tip.
