A cartoon illustration of a cricket, standing in a very confident pose and staring at the viewer. The cricket is frowning and smiling at the same time, with a devious look on his face. His body is curved outward and his feet are planted firmly below. He is wearing a red vest with gold buttons, a gold tie tucked into the vest, brown pants, and blue shoes with gold spats. One of his arms is bent with hand on hip, the other is holding a blue top hat with a gold ribbon around it. His antennae are sticking up off his head and his light blue wings are visible behind him. The background is a dull orange with a diagonal of lighter color across the top and falling off to the right.

Today's June Toons cartoon is a different take on a familiar old cricket.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching and the Syrup brush for everything else.
