Below are all my paintings I created for the exhibit. I love making up homes and spaces for creatures, and that was the focus of my pieces. I revisited a lot of animals I haven't drawn in a long time - like iguana's, bats, and wombats. Many of these creatures I was obsessed with as a kid and really fun to draw them again! 

The Shiba dog reading, ferrets shopping, and the iguana were also influenced a by pets I had through out my life (or in the case of the Shiba is modeled after our pup Toshi!).
