A cute digital illustration of anthropomorphic animals playing in a flower garden. A rabbit stands in front of a rose arch and is waving to a cat down the path. They are both holding flowers. A bird in a flower crown runs happily nearby. In the foreground, a squirrel smells a flower on a bush.

Trying to achieve a print look in my digital drawings. I’m focusing more on my character art these days. I have a specific goal in mind and I’m hoping to achieve them by these little practices.

I did a mini sketch yesterday and decided to color it digitally. Finally learnt how to efficiently scan my images and extract the line art from them. 😊 Small wins!
