Why is my Logo a rabbit?

​

Good question. When I was first experimenting with character design and animation, I owned a rabbit named Watson. He inspired much of my art during his life. He was such a character. By drawing him over and over, I learned to pick out defining characteristics, while keeping the design simple. He began my journey as an artist, and so I like him present in my work.
