“We Polish an Animal Mirror When We Look for Ourselves” Donna Haraway Submitted my final work for my first semester @edinburghuniversity / @edinburghcollegeofart and @ecaillustration . It’s been tough but a brilliant place to study. A little daunting, as the class is full of amazing image makers. Now back to my commercial commissions on my own students. #illustration #illustrationstudent #macaque #passengerpigeon #extinction #anthrozoology #pencildrawing #stcuthbertsmill (at Edinburgh College of Art) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrA4HahBBRJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gkz5bhffanf5

Thank you so much to those who have been supporting my shop this year. I have been too busy with my masters, exhibiting and doing commissions to release anything new. Still a little more time to get 30% off in my Etsy store. Still enough time to shop internationally too. Link in profile.

The Last California Bear I am currently working on a project illustrating the stories of animals who were the last of its species. A sad warning. This is the last Californian bear. Said to be the largest of all brown bears. Hunted to death during the gold rush. The last was said to be caught in a publicity stunt and lived out his days in a cage. He now survives on the flag of California. Pencil on cotton rag. - #beardrawing #californianbear #brownbear #hunters #conservation #bearhunt #pencildrawing #animaldrawing #drawinganimals #fabercastell #stcuthbertsmill #amydover (at Mt.
