hi !! I love your work, and it's always great to see more appreciation for the mustelid family, heheh :) so of course I gotta ask, is there any reason for why they're such a prominent figure in your art?

Hi! Thank you so much! Actually it's kind of a weird story I used to hallucinate daily (it's better now) and somehow i often hallucinated a big, black Marten like mustelid. He would stay right in front of me for some time. Actually this guy catched my interest in mustelids and I started to draw them as a coping mechanism which turned into love and appreciation for these beautiful animals
