"The Hangry Hippo" Today is looking to be mighty fine and it's also the first day of our blog, whoo hoo!  We're pretty pumped about it because this means that we get to share more of our work on a new platform, as well as our process of creating and hopefully meet other artists who inspire us in the process!
