Cottagetober: A Tribute To Beatrix Potter

This year, I decided to pay homage to one of my childhood heroes, the beloved Beatrix Potter. Inspired by her enchanting stories and whimsical illustrations, I crafted my own Inktober challenge and named it “Cottagetober.”

Despite a busy schedule, I couldn’t imagine skipping Inktober after four consecutive years of participation. So, instead of the usual 31 illustrations, I set my sights on creating 16 pieces. Each artwork celebrates the life and charm of cottagecore animals, capturing their daily adventures in a rustic, idyllic setting. I brought these little worlds to life using watercolor, adding a soft and dreamy touch to each scene.

Hope you enjoyed a creative and inspiring October too! 😊

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
