Gung hei fat choy! Happy year of the rat!
The year of the rat has been going just wonderfully so far, and here's one of the reasons: I was asked to do an illustration on Thursday night for a new year's lunar/Chinese horoscope page. This is the second illustration I've done for the horoscope page of an awesome new Oakland magazine. I never had a chance to post the first one (a "traditional" zodiac, featuring Sag and Capricorn) but I will soon!
This illustration was a really quick turnaround, due basically Saturday night/Sunday morning. I worked really hard and pulled it off without too much trouble -- I was so delighted by the opportunity to draw so many animals that it made it much easier :)
I am so lucky to be getting so much animal illustration work lately! Ok, maybe it's not luck, maybe its more like people are starting to think of me when they want animals? Hey, that's cool!
