Guerric HachéBeavers are tough and hard workers; I'm sure this one is just thinking about what a pain the cleanup will be tomorrow.
I drew this for fun after being struck by some inspiration; I don't usually do whole scenes like this, at least not yet, but it was a great exercise. I'd like to work on scenery more in the future.
I'm not really sure whether it makes sense to print it on everyday items, but I do have it up as a poster: https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/4513279653/beaver-versus-tsunami-matte-poster

I'm trying for the third time to upload this in a way that isn't broken. I'm thinking maybe the original image was just too large (6000x8000 pixels), so maybe this smaller version will be visible. Here's hoping.
