Early on in my napkin drawings I started adding in our pets. We had a dog and cat, and now we have 2 dogs and a cat. They are recurring characters. We also had a snake, a turtle and lots of pet rats when my daughters were growing up. They make appearances as well.
I use animals as the voice of wisdom often. They are immune from the stupidity of society and humanity so they are a great objective reporter of our homo sapien pressures.
Here is a collection of animal drawings from 1998 to 2014.

All anger does come from fear.
But I often let my biggest faults be known right off. If you still wanna hang around if you know some of my worst straight away, then we can probably be friends. The small stuff will seem that much smaller when discovered.
