Clear enough to
recognize at a glance.
The same hand-drawn look across the whole collection — verified against the real species, animal by animal.
“The design stays simple so the subject remains the focus.”
An illustration for a learning card has a different purpose from an illustration in a picture book. The subject needs to be clear, easy to identify and free from unnecessary visual distraction.
We pay attention to the position, size and silhouette of each animal so that it works not only as artwork, but also for naming, matching, sorting, comparing and independent exploration.

Leopard cubs are born with a woolly, greyish coat and only faintly visible rosettes, which sharpen into the bold, well-defined pattern of an adult coat over the following months. This early fuzziness helps camouflage a cub in dense undergrowth while it is too weak to flee from danger.
A leopard cub weighs only about 500 to 600 grams at birth and is born blind, needing around ten days before its eyes fully open. This is a tiny fraction of an adult leopard's weight, which can reach over 60 kilograms in males.
Leopard cubs begin cutting their first teeth around three weeks of age but do not develop the strong adult canines needed for effective hunting until closer to their first year. Their claws, though sharp from birth, also need continued growth and practice through play before they support serious climbing and hunting.
