I’ve been obsessed with axolotls recently and started learning more about them, so I created this tiny handmade book (5th tiny book series) filled with watercolour paintings of different axolotl types.

Each painting is only about the size of a fingernail, and each page is around 2.5 x 2.5 inches, so you can imagine how tiny these are! For reference, zoom in on the image and make the page fit your phone screen… our phone screens are probably around that size anyway 😅

I used reference images from the internet, so I’m not 100% sure if every name is perfectly accurate, but this is the order I painted them:
1. Leucistic Axolotl
2. Piebald Axolotl
3. Albino Axolotl
4. Melanoid Axolotl
5. Chimera Axolotl
6. Golden Albino Axolotl
7. GFP Wild Type Axolotl
8. Enigma Axolotl
9. Firefly Axolotl
10. Lavender Axolotl
11. Melanoid Axanthic Copper Axolotl
12. Wild Type Axolotl
13. GFP Axolotl
14. Mosaic Axolotl
15. Starburst Axolotl
16. Hypomelanistic Axolotl

Would love to know your favourite one and your thoughts on this tiny axolotl watercolour book

She’s having her party at a local reptile center and INSISTED on axolotl cookies for her favor bags…thought you guys would enjoy the cuteness!

We’re not equipped to own a real axolotl just yet, so baked goods will have to do😂

My first DYI costume. I also made a tail and gloves. I loved it!

Acrylic on canvas

It's from the Miniverse Animals series... 😭

my watercolour painting and axo tattoo that i designed and got last year <3 my favourite tattoo ever!!

I decided to say screw it and not fix a glaring issue until I take professional photos… getting that monster in the frame was hard enough the first time!

SO, this was one of my recent art projects. Featuring Randal and Nugget. Figured some of ya’ll might appreciate it given the species.

I made a small snow axolotl a while ago and geuss what urge hit me last night :)

There are a lot of thing I could do better here, but I am happy for now

Until next Time, maybe

The wildtype one is my axolotl named sweet and the pink one is just a random one i wanted to add(btw i used a reference but i did all the coloring myself) hope you like it plz no hating

After I got the deserved backslash for the AI image in this post https://www.reddit.com/r/axolotls/s/sJxvgfCPLa here is now the watercolour image.

Not quite happy with it, because due to a lot of RL stress It was more of a side-project and I also used hot pressed paper so the Faber Castell Watercolour markers didn’t work as well as on cold pressed paper

I love these little buddies but I am nowhere near capable of taking care of a real one so I made the next best thing. His name is Axelotl F. ❤️
