Whiskers by the Riverbank

A round-bellied otter sits up tall on his back paws, wide-eyed and ready for something silly. He tips his head a little to the side and sports a shiny button nose, as if he hears a giggle or the splash of a fish. His whiskers shoot out in every direction, and his fur looks soft and puffy around his cheeks and neck. Every detail, from his round belly to the swoop of his long tail, begs for a burst of color.

With his little paws curled in front and a half-smile on his snout, this otter looks like he might wiggle or roll over at any second. His ears flop gently to the sides, soaking up every sound. There’s plenty of smooth space around him, inviting bold strokes of blue, green, or even a stripey pink. The picture feels light and friendly, with every line ready for a creative splash.
