He is running, carrying a pumpkin light (for safety) in one hand and his pumpkin-shaped bucket full of candy is his other hand, while looking over his shoulder.

No, I’m not in California, I’m east coast. And, yes, TNR programs are great. I hope more states/communities follow suit. There are way too many unwanted animals in this world, which is heartbreaking.

Good to know.😊

I googled ear tipping recently because I’ve had a stray that visits my backyard — its right ear is tipped. My friend has a male cat with its left ear tipped and wondered if there was a standard for tipping.

Left or right, I’m just glad that the stray in my yard is spay/neutered.

I just recently found out that which ear they “tip” is significant — they tip the left ears for males and the right for females.

Elemental art share featuring water 🌊

If you see this, post something watery!

I've had this happen as well, though only one raccoon — you had an army of them!

Love your style...such cute characters.

I love everything about this illustration -- color, style, the feelings it emotes. Well done.

So long summer... 👋

This is an encore appearance for my bear character who made his first appearance in my July postcard.

Your paintings are wonderful. Do you use watercolor as well — or strictly gouache?

Happy Belated! 🌺🌼💐

Congrats!! 🥳

I’ve heard of using that, but didn’t know if it was as effective as traditional art fixative or if it would cause discoloration of the art over time.

When you use pastels in a sketchbook, what kind of fixative do you use to prevent the pages from smearing/transferring color?

Love this! What type of paper do you prefer for oil pastels?

Hello all! It's #PortfolioDay 🎨.

I’m Laurie Brosius, an author/illustrator/graphic designer seeking representation & creative work in #kidlit PB, covers, magazine/editorial, etc.

A promo postcard for illustrator Laurie Brosius featuring a bear wearing sunglasses who is lounging on a colorful striped towel at the beach. The bear is sipping a drink through a straw and has a bag of snacks to munch on while he reads a book. He has a bottle of sunscreen and a multicolor umbrella to protect him from the sun. A beach pail and shovel, as well as a football, are nearby and ready for action. A small land crab is keeping the bear company. ©Laurie Brosius 2025

I'm always amazed at how tired I am after a "relaxing" day at the beach. ⛱️ ☀️

Wow, that is so cool!

“Runaway Ralph” was a favorite of mine when I was in fourth grade. I was big into motorcycles and even remember drawing Ralph on his motorcycle.

I like that the shape of the chair back looks like an open book. 📖 😃

Love your style!

Love this! 🐽

Super cute!

Catching blue crabs with Grandmom is one of my fondest childhood memories. We'd catch a half bushel in a couple hours. Good eats! 🦀
