Snow Fleas

There's this small beastie called a snow flea ...

Ink and watercolor on 60lb. paper. Approximately 4"x6". This will likely be our holiday card this year, and I'll put prints up for sale next year. (Or then again, maybe sooner.)

p.s. Snow Fleas are actually a type of Springtail, and do not make you itch.
