Happy Father's Day Austria

Father's Day 2015 (Austria)
Happy Father’s Day to dads of all shapes, sizes, and species! Today’s Doodle represents the universality of familial love. I had a few separate concepts, some with animals, some with people, and looking at them all, I thought it would be fun to try to tie them together.
I was working on Mother’s and Father’s day simultaneously, so it made sense to keep them in a similar style and theme. Plus, once I started coming up with animal-related antics it was hard to stop.
Once I settled on the concept I did a quick rough pass at animation to make sure it would work visually.
I decided to go with a watercolor texture because I think there’s something very comforting and familiar about it, that shows a more human hand.
Thank you to dads everywhere, for carrying us until we've learned to stand on our own, and sometimes even after.
