the big surprise

*throws down tablet pen*

at the beginning of this lovely month of december, when i was still in a frenzy about tests, homework, and the like, a little journal floated into my notifications, one about a gift event in the bagbean community. i instantly went into a frenzy; who do i draw for? there are so many people i have met that have been wonderful friends to me, and so many cute bean designs i would love to draw!! and then it hit me, when i saw the bean advent calender event, i noticed that slots had been taken up by some of my favourite artists and friends, some well-known members of the community, people i was thankful to have met through my involvement in the community, and importantly, some new, soon-to-be members of the bagbean group! all of these people influenced me in such positive ways and i wanted to do something for as many people as i could in one go! so i told myself to draw every single bean created from the 1st of december to christmas, so i could drop this gift on the innocent receivers! and so here we are nearly a month later, looking at a project full of love and adoration for all my friends in the community!! i hope this conveys my appreciation for each and every one of you.

to anyone wanting the separate image of their bean, let me know!

@TheHumanHeart such a festive and pretty bean <3 i love the holly and the vibrant greens/reds in the design!
Eusuchia AHH this dove bean is so cute and gentle looking, im particularly fond of the lavender hair and those claws are so cool happy holidays <3
i have never had a bean before!! but i am very fond of those found in my favourites here: swiftpath123.deviantart.com/fa…

i usually like a mix between girly/tom-boyish design, with lots of feminine elements!! some animals i love are sheep/goats (A LOT)(maybe a Valais Blacknose Sheep?), hamsters, cats, deer, and i can't think off the top of my head :0 but most animals. i love flowers, peonies being my favourites, and fruit such as figs/strawberries/maybe a peach bean! i really like french pastry type desserts that are full of cream. i like long hair or hair that is styled, i love mythical creatures, sparkle, i love ram horns/antlers, i love fluff, hmm and i can't think of much else!! but if you choose me you can ask me as many questions as you like because i am awful at describing things unless prompted by specific question!!

HERE'S TO A NEW YEAR FULL OF GRIFFIA!
