Here's my work of the deceased creator of my childhood show "The Backyardigans" featuring Pablo, Tyrone, Uniqua, Tasha and Austin, they're so really sad about her loss :(
Janice Burgess passed away at 72 about 3 days ago after 72th birthday due to the Breast Cancer.
i originally started this just a few days before janice burgess passed away. if you have been following me for a while, you'd know that the backyardigans is still one of my all time favorite shows to this day: a major brainworm ive had since i was first popped out the womb.
she had such a huge hand in me and my siblings childhoods outside of backyardigans, as well, and i cant understate how much it means to me to see a black woman have such a major role in various popular animated franchises.
RIP to one of my greatest animation inspos, ESPECIALLY when it comes to children's entertainment. the fact that mrs. burgess passed on the day before my birthday hurts especially, so i dedicate this drawing to her! i would not be who i am w/o these goobers, so thank you
I heard the unfortunate news that Janice Burgess, the creator of Backyardigans passed away recently, which is pretty saddening. I think doing this little cosplay thing was a bit of a tribute to her.
Thank you Janice for creating such an amazingly iconic show loved by many, and you will truly be missed 🩷 🌹
Tyrone's face on the cover of the Say "Please!" book would definitely be his reaction to seeing that Chris Grant is planning to make Backyardigans NFTs
after several months of preparation, im happy to announce that i'm opening up my small business on 🌟MARCH 21st!!🌟
ill be selling various fandom merch, and plan to expand to different types besides stickers (like button pins or....keychains??) im super excited to finally announce this and have spent so much time planning everything.
