With a flick of a pencil and a pixel or two of colour, Rob Snow has added a little life to the quirky side of Mother Nature. Set in a series of ten illustrations, different animals have been characterised in various twists of their personas, with an added touch of human influence.
Included with each illustration is a well-crafted story of how the image came about.
