Description This is one of those rare pieces where I had planned something that was significantly more texturally complicated, and then I got this far on paper and a little voice spoke up and said "Stop now. You keep going, you'll ruin it." This does not happen often, and I have learned the hard way that the little voice is usually right and I should listen.

It is a simpler piece than I expected, but I was oddly pleased with it. It's 8x8, acrylic and graphite on a printed paper (yes, those are very faint kanji in the badger's fur, that's the paper texture showing through.)

Original is for sale, drop a line or send a note. Prints are available at Red Wombat Studio: [link]

I don't know why - but the European badgers are just my favorites. Love this simple, charming illustration.

Heh, maybe the badger and Digger should get together for a cup of tea and discuss Tunnels They Have Dug.

Well, you claim to have no talent for abstract, however, everything behind the badger's face...

I can't remember what phrase that often followed the answer to "what did you photograph," but it's that same thing. I think they said something akin to "wow" but it translated much differently.
