THANK YOU
I'm trying to be a better drawer and not just hide away in a drawer. ❤️

🎃 Today is the perfect day to draw a creature. A gremlin. A goblin. View this cryptid at your own risk, but beware, raccoon crimes are taking place.

(I'm so very fond of these little guys 🦝)

Digital Art A raccoon sloppily eating the top of a carved pumpkin while wearing the stem as a hat. The pumpkin has a distressed face on it and in the raccoon's paws he holds a piece of the gourd with a clear chunk missing from it in the shape of a raccoons mouth. If you were to ask him about it, he would post likely deny any involvement in this Halloween crime.

Graphite drawing on paper. 6.5 x 4 in On a ripped out page of a dictionary is a drawing of a fox. He is leaning against the wall next to a window, book in one hand and a cup in the other. Outside the window is a hilly landscape dotted with trees.

#FourthOfJuly #SmokeInMyEye #LittleRaccoonGuy
Digital art, from 4th of July 2022 A raccoon at a theme park looks up at fireworks exploding in the night sky above him. Sculpted trees and shrubs line the paths behind the decorative railings and lampposts. Rollercoasters, game booths, and a carousel fill the surrounding area. The raccoon also has a festive sparkly drink in his hand. It got him sick after drinking it with a big tummy ache (not pictured).

I went back to bed for only 5 minutes and IT’S JUNE?!?
A raccoon under a sheet with only his snout and eyes poking out from a hole in the middle of it. This is me. I am this raccoon.

Thanks to everyone who joined my stream and watched this little guy fish the afternoon away. 🎣

It was a fun time. Worth it's weight in raccoins 👛✨
A LEGO raccoon standing on the bank of a river holding a fishing rod with the line going into the water. Beside him is a barrel with a net and pitchfork sticking out of it -- they are also LEGO pieces. The bank on the other side has green rolling hills and a fence that extends down to the rivers edge.

Society: You're late
Me: THAT IS TRUE
Society: They'll never arrive on time
Me: THAT IS ALSO TRUE
An angry Rocket Raccoon. I realize how little that narrows it down.

Rat's present
Graphite drawing on paper, 8x10 inches Expecting another standard delivery, a raccoon mailman opens a mailbox and -- to his surprise -- finds that a rat has made it into his cozy little home. The rat, dressed in a tiny waistcoat, reaches out with a smile and miniscule clawed hands to accept the delivery; a bundle of packages and wooden spool tied carefully together with a length of string and decorated with a bow. To the side, and through a frosted window built into the mailbox's address plate, two other rats can be seen inside telling stories and eating cheese together. The landscape is cold and snowy with bare trees lining the horizon. The mailbox is mounted on a wooden base with a stack of firewood, half buried in snow, resting on it. A rope ladder built with cut pencils leads down the side. Sticking out the top of the box, and emerging from a layer of snow, is a smoking furnace pipe, showing how the rats are staying warm in such a cold environment. The interior is neatly decorated, having such things as: draped garland, mouse themed wall hooks, a thimble flower pot, hanging herbs, framed pictures, and a rug bolted to the opening side of the box so it stays in place when it's upright and closed. Well done little rats. Lastly, our surprised postal worker is dressed in a black brimmed Pinecone Postal Service cap (with acorn pin on the side), a small black bowtie, and a long, striped scarf that's draped over his coat. A round patch on his shoulder has a design of a letter stylized to look like a fox and a tree with branches going up to an arc of four stars. You're dressed nice, but you really should have noticed the smoke coming out of the mailbox, Mr. Raccoon. Come on now.

Pssst. 1, 2, or 3? 👀
Rough pencil thumbnail sketch. A fox in a little cap sits on the shoulders of a large bear has they try to place a star on the top of a Christmas tree. Lost in concentration, the fox doesn't realize that his elbow is bunching up the fur on the bears forehead, much to his amusement. Rough pencil thumbnail sketch. A raccoon mailman delivers the smallest of packages to a family of rats who have made their home inside of a mailbox. One of the rats reaches up to accept a bundle of neatly tied boxes while the others can be seen sitting and laughing together through a window on the side. The interior is quite nicely decorated. Well done little rats. Rough pencil thumbnail sketch. A fox proudly presents his friend with a small handmade ornament that is dressed just like him. The recipient, a bear, looks on is stunned amazement with stars in his eyes at the thoughtful gift, his two big paws covering the front of his face. The background has a pegboard with a scarf and mittins hanging.

Oh wow! There's quite a bit more of you here then there was the last time I checked!

🌲Hello hello everyone, and welcome to the burrow :)

I hope you enjoy your stay and are ready for some fun holiday hijinks happening this month!
An in-progress drawing of a marten pulling back the curtains of a window and peeking his head through with a gleeful smile. Surrounding the drawing are dried up fall leaves and three leaf clovers. A paper strip sits in the middle with "Hello new followers" written on it. Small yellow flowers are on either side of the paper.

There are various phrasing’s of it made by Mark Twain, Franklin D. Rosevelt, and others, but I choose to believe you got this from The Princess Dairies
Two stills from the movie The Princess Dairies stacked on top of each other. The caption reads: “Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear” The frame is Mia reading a letter from her father in a very fuzzy early 2000’s chair, and the bottom frame is of her father writing the letter by a river, disappointedly not in a very fuzzy early 2000’s chair.

When the Christmas music starts playing the DAY AFTER Halloween
A screenshot from the movie Frozen 2 but instead of beautiful queen we have an upset bean. A closeup of a frustrated raccoon wearing a shirt covered in little black bats is looking up and off to the left with the caption "I can hear you" Another screenshot but this one is farther zoomed out. The raccoon now looks off to the right with his little hands spread out in denial. The caption reads: "But I wont" Let's hope he doesn't burst out into song like in the movie.

Walking at night is routine for this nocturnal traveler, but as the midnight hour past, the wind began to blow cold and carried with it a distinctive chill that only comes one day a year.

He really should've brought a walking buddy...
Digital art. A raccoon walks in spooky forest in the middle of the night. Fog clings to the grassy ground and, while he's equipped with a clunky old flashlight, its beam shows only the dark silhouettes of the trees around him. Leaves blow past, caught up in the chilled wind as he looks back with a worried expression. The raccoon is wearing a blue baseball cap, a striped grey and black hoodie, black pants, converse shoes, and blue socks with starry constellations on them.

Wondering what to get that special raccoon in your life?

How about this handy dandy spell-book! It may be a bit old, but it’s the perfect gift for those persistent little wash bears.

They deserve some extra love this #RaccoonAppreciationDay after all :)📚
Digital art, traditional inks, photo editing. An old book with a ten cent price sticker and raccoon wizard on the cover. The text reads: “Powerful Pumpkin Spells” on the top, and “Cotton Candy Conjuration, Pawstidigitation, Leaf Levitation, Secret Sniff, and MORE. Pinecone Publishers - A Raccoon Company” on the bottom of the book. The raccoon stands, arms in the air and wand in hand, over a hollowed pumpkin which is filled with bubbling liquid due to the raging fire beneath it. Out of the bubbles rises a perfect fluff of cotton candy. The raccoon wears a black billowing cape and a pointed hat with pumpkin seeds swirling around it. He is also sporting a vest and a big spotted bow around his neck. The latest in animal wizard fashion. Two big trees stand on either side while two little rats stand below them watching the commotion with small smiles. Various symbols arc around the raccoon comprising of bats, stars, and moons.

🍂Orange gourd season has officially started

So here are some raccoons showing their appreciation for pumpkins to help get you through the day
🎃🦝🎃🦝🎃🦝
A raccoon sits with a carved jack o'lantern in between his legs. The pumpkin has a smiling raccoon face carved into it that matches its real-life counterpart who makes the same happy grin looking down while slightly illuminated from the pumpkin's glow. Something not shared between the two are the raccoon's whiskers, which are very good. Art drawn digitally. Amidst a densely packed pumpkin patch, a raccoon peeks out. He holds the one in front of him with both paws, while his ears and eyes face directly forward. Slightly off to the side is his very handsome ringed tail. Art drawn digitally. A raccoon in a photobooth holds a carved pumpkin with both hands up and under his chin. The raccoon is wearing a wizard's cape with star patterns on it. They are both making the same expression because they are very close friends; a wink and blep. The photo has a Halloween themed border decorated with spiderwebs, candy corn, and bats. Art drawn digitally.

Dress-Code Distress 💧🦝

They all told him to come wearing his fanciest clothes, so he went out and bought a new bow to look his very best. It was only after arriving at the party that he realized what exactly had happened...

Maybe he can hide behind a tree before anyone sees him and laughs. 🌳🌳
Graphite drawing on paper, 6x8 inches. A fancily dressed raccoon stands in the shade of an oak tree with a worried look upon his face. He's wearing a waistcoat with a watch fob chain drooping from his second button to his left pocket, black arm garters keep his sleeves in place and a shiny black silk cravat around his neck is tied into a large bow. He grips his matching suit jacket with anxious paws while his ringed tail swoops behind him. Right next to the raccoon is a wooden post with a line of rope going through it and above are leafed branches giving him shade. In the background looms a large tree which stands in front of a train station, the top of its angled roof is peeking out from behind the large leafy crown on the left. There is one lone train car to the left and a disconnected old-fashioned train engine to the right. The background is all shaded lightly in contrast with the much darker shaded foreground.

We got video now! So here is a sneak peak of a drawing coming soon.

I find there's no better atmosphere in which to draw fancy woodland critters than during a summer thunderstorm.
