Description
A follow-up--only a year late!--to One Odd Ocelot. The sketch has been around nearly that long, but I was only seized by the urge to paint big-eyed primates recently.In addition to the tarsiers, there are tomatoes, tomatillos, textbooks (or tomes!) test tubes and toe rings.

This kind of reminds me of what me and my friend are like.

This is fantastic! I usually don't like green and red as primary palette colors because it just screams 'Christmas' to me (regardless of the illustration's theme or intent) but you handled the colors expertly in this piece- they look perfect!
And I'm loving the toe-ring; so cute!

This has come together wonderfully!! Love it!
I still have One Odd Ocelot cycling through on my desktop background every now and again, and he still makes me smile every time. I think this one might have to be added to that collection!
Congrats!

This reminds me of a book I loved as a kid called "Animalia" by Graeme Base. Just recently lent it to my sister, and her 3-year-old loves it.

And they have Trees and Tails and everything is colored Tangerine and they are probably boys so they have two tiny....
Better stop there.

My first thought here is that this should be part of a deck for some particularly bizarre card game.

So we have two tarsiers texting, next to a tree, along with tomatoes, textbooks, test tubes...and some sort of fruit that I don't recognise. What on earth are those fruit?

Did you ever see the book, I think it was called "Animalia" growing up? It's a childrens book where every page/spread is like this, all things of on letter, has an ungodly amount of detail, and even adults could drown in it for hours? This reminds me of that, and I love it!

Such neat little animals whose name I had forgotten... Some of the lesser-known primates are so much more interesting than what we all hear about.

Thoroughbreds in thongs?
Thylacines threshing thistles?
Thrushes theatrically threatening thimbles?
(If you're sticking to actual and not fictional species: otherwise you could have Thoats, Thestrals etc.) 7@=e

8D Ah! You took the idea even further! Now there are two texting tarsiers... love it. The colour scheme is simply gorgeous.
Like someone else suggested, I'd love a set of counting cards from one to ten. My nephew is as interested in animals as I am, and something like this would help a great deal.
