“Bright Eyed and Bushy-Tailed”
I discovered the artwork of Jean S. Kaiyou on Substack recently and just can’t say enough about it. You can find her on Substack – @jeanskaiyou “Unfinished Sketchbook” or on her website – “Wildlife Art”

“Keeper of Colors”
The thing that sets Jean apart in my mind – apart from her obvious talent – is that she sounds so approachable in her posts on “Unfinished Sketchbook” on Substack.

“Shades of Light and Dark”
Jean is real. She describes ups and downs, feeling good or bad about a sketch, how her art changes in relationship to what’s going on in her life, how her art helps her through challenges.

“The Portrait of a Lady”
Right now, I think this one is my favorite, although that changes each time I scroll through her work. I love owls, and this pose is endearing. I want to touch him, although I would doubt he would allow it…

“Yes, I am Very Round”
