Three little travellers are joining up to do some magic. 🌳

This drawing concludes my #AugustAdventures series, but I am sure these three friends will be seen again 💛

#cuteart #artyear #animalart

a digital drawing that is split into three panels.
In the first panel a little mole in a red sweater is pushing an oak sprout in a wheelbarrow. His lantern is tucked under his arm and his wormfriend is riding in the soil inside the barrow. A mouse in a green zipped coat and a wren with glasses and blue coat with moon buttons are watching from the top of a hill, with the mouse pointing to the side with her paw.
In the second panel the wren is watering the oak sprout which has been placed into the ground with something coming out of a round potion bottle while his friends are watching curiously.
In the third panel the sprout has grown into a sapling. The mouse and mole are sitting at the bottom of its trunk with the mouse playing music on a little silver flute. The mole seems to be taking a nap with his worm companion wrapped around its neck while the wren enjoys the music sitting on the highest branch of the sapling. Along the stem, a little snail is crawling. The panels are split by the staffs associated with the three travellers. There is a branch with a single leaf for the mouse with a small snail crawling along. There is a burnt out match which is still slightly glowing for the wren, and a branch with a star shaped lantern for the mole, with a earthworm watching the second panel from the branch.

Sprout + Magic for #AugustAdventures2025
#augustadventures2025week4

Viewed from above, a young woman in a blue dress sleeps on a stone slab surrounded by bindweed. Her long hair is strewn about and falls over the edge of the stone. Her folded hands hold a softly glowing medallion. Bindweed creeps up over the side of the stone, tendrils curing over her dress. Sheep graze on the weeds, partially out of frame. The sun rises out of frame casting pinkish orange light.

A watercolor painting of an orange cat and an orange dog. The cat is holding a star, which glows and shines, making little sprouts grow in their fur.

A digital drawing of a mole in a red sweater digging out an oak tree sapling with a shovel next to some trees, roots and grass. Its star shaped lantern is glowing next to it and its earthworm friend is surveying the work. A watering can, a bucket and the handle of a smaller shuffle are strewn around them.

For Sprout and Magic I repurposed an old sketch and drew a little plant themed witch!

[ #AugustAdventures | #AugustAdventures2025 | #augustadventures2025week4 | #ArtChallenge | #ArtPrompts ]

Drawing of a chibi witch with pale green skin, medium green hair that looks like leaves, pink eyes, and freckles. She is wearing a dark green dress and witch hat along with a pink apron. Her shoes look like flower buds.

A digital drawing of a wren in glasses and a blue coat inspecting a stone tablet while sitting on it. It is holding a lightly glowing match-like wand in one of its wings. The tablet shows some cryptic clues containing a seed, a potion bottle and a flute playing music. Next to the tablet a sitting frog statue made of stone is holding a stone potion bottle over its head with two arms, and a blue glowing smaller potion bottle in front of its belly in another two arms. One of the frogs eyes looks up at the stone bottle, while the other looks down at the potion bottle. The scene is set in an open cave, which might be in the middle of a tree and is covered in wild grass and leaves.
