Welcome (●'◡'●)ﾉ♥ @otusumbra - Tumblr Blog

I'm so pleased I can finally share my Antarctic Imperial Cormorant illustration for Polar Lights 4! This was a bird I knew little about before I selected it, but I quickly fell in love with their incredible colors and how they contrast against the vivid blue & white of the Antarctic landscape.

Check out the full zine! All proceeds go to the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition.

Sketching in nature. Can someone help me ID this plant?

“Most likely the artist's dog; several of the drawings and sketches by Muriel Helen Dawson (1897-1974), held at the Natural History Museum, London, depict a Scottish Terrier and Cocker Spaniel, the artist's dogs, walking in the Sussex countryside.”
