The last Wednesday of May is International Otter Day (or World Otter Day), and The Otter Specialist Group (OSG) held an art contest to celebrate the day. The organization requested art entitled, “A Day in the Life of an Otter” and to represent one of the thirteen species of otters.

I submitted a digital pen and ink with a color wash of a happy North American River Otter with the catch of the day.

I enjoy challenging myself with various art projects when I’m not creating products. You can see more of what I do on the side in my artist portfolio.
