Februdoodle 2026 #3: Mouse with Cheese

A cartoon illustration of a skinny gray-blue mouse standing up and holding a chunk of cheese. The mouse is giving a thumbs up with his other hand. He is wearing a yellow beanie, opaque round glasses, a pair of blue shorts, and green sneakers. The glasses make his expression unreadable. The chunk of cheese is yellow and about as big as the mouse's head. He is standing in front of an orange background with a pale-yellow wedge shape directly behind him.

Today's Februdoodle was inspired by a book that my kid loves reading, Time To Pee!, by Mo Willems. There are hundreds of little mice doing all sorts of things in that book, and I was thinking about them when I sat down to draw tonight. It's a silly book about an important subject and I sorta love it.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Rusty Nib 1 brush for linework, the Inka brush for background texture, and the Rough Dot Shader 45 Light brush for the halftone shading.

The Rusty Nib brush is from the Rusty Nib pack, and the Rough Dot Shader is from the Beat Tones pack. Both of those are by True Grit Texture supply.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
