I'm pretty fond of this badger, I draw her a lot.
Guardian of the Honey
I often have pictures with animals that I variously call "wolves" or "foxes" but they actually don't mean that that is what they are. These animals are furry wild animals that are sort of a stand in for animal or forest spirits. They represent something wild and non-human to me, rather than actually being a specific animal. They often take on human characteristics, but they bring a piece of their feral selves into whatever they're doing. I'm pretty bad at explaining things like that about my work, but hopefully that gets across what I mean!

Oh they are beautiful, Julianna! And I know JUST what you mean!! I feel much the same way about my own woodland inhabitants......wild spirits, all!!
haha, yes it does!
i love the bird with the little violin, it looks like a sparrow to me, but it's not really one, is it? a sparrow actually was the first word that crossed my mind when i first saw it- i now hope what i say gets across what i mean! ;D
