Bitter Bunnies

Bitter Bunnies are a group of friends just trying to be better bunnies. The characters I’ve created are personifications of difficult and shameful emotions we all have. With approachable and cute designs, I aim to make my work something others can find comfort and representation in. By making these characters so inviting and accessible, I hope to help others start to question the complexities of their own emotions and begin to have a better understanding of their own hearts and minds.
