Getting the last pieces in order for this sale’s event today! Come by @theannexnfk this afternoon to see my work and so many others!

Pair of tiny commissions from a couple of years ago. I finally got my hands on more frames of this style. Very excited to do more sassy little animals. #animalart #cuteart #watercolor #redpanda #riverotter #ishawayart #nofox

Cleaning up the hell that is my Procreate library. Found this piece, abandoned. Picked it up, tweaked it and am calling it done for now. Remember, the leopards will always bite. Doesn’t matter if you stood with them before, your face is just as good as the next. #politicalart #ishawayart #leopardeatsface

Plotting and dreaming of doing some more No Foxes and other No Critters #animalart #watercolor #illustration #cuteart #fennecfox #batearedfox #ishawayart

Dreaming: Cycles <revisited> (Swipe the dots to see the full piece, the aspect ratio and size are not friendly to this app) I remember working on this image, curled up with my cats and an elevated knee (lift gate at work broke.) I had high hopes and was full of dreams about attending RISD; perusing illustration and becoming another artist with a BFA by 2018/2019. I did not get into RISD. I kept working away at my community college. I now stack my two associate degrees in a trench coat. My baby sibling got into a good 4 year school. So, I tossed my coins hard into furry art and conventions to help raise their tuition. I am now in my mid 30s, revisiting this piece which I only have iPhone 4S photos of because we had to mail in the originals as part of the application. I spent time reflecting about the life cycles most animals go through. Birth, growth, life, death, reentry to the soil. Only one thing is promised once you are born, that someday you will die. The rest is up to instinct, chance, and (for some animals <hard eyes humans as a whole>) choice. The Dreaming series has always been meditative for me. I can see where I can just let my mind loosen a little bit. Almost like on autopilot, I can know how I want the piece to work and twist, and nudge it the right ways to do so. The full artist statement for this work is available on my Patreon, where works like this one are posted before they are released to the wider internet. If you enjoy my work, and would like it help support it directly, Patreon or Ko-fi are wonderful ways to do so. …… #ishawayart #dreaming #tribal #fox #rabbit #hare #owl #barnowl #natureart #lifecycle #pattens #abstract #organicgeometry #animalart #earthtones
