After having the idea to have a garden based character, I then thought that an even more interesting place to base my characters was in around a pond. As there is a wealth of possible scenarios for my characters to encounter. Not only that, but with Pond life, I felt I would be able to create characters with a more unique aesthetic. An aesthetic that made them instantly recognisable as pond dwellers.

So I started to look into the creatures one may find in and around ponds, and did some initial sketches of them, to see what characteristics they portrayed, and if i would be able to use any of these characteristics to embelish my characters.
