Brutus finally revealed to Pixie how he got his scars
Pet Foolery is a real art whale on Instagram. Ben’s account has over 2.4 million loyal followers on the platform and it doesn’t look like their ranks will stop growing any time soon. So long as Ben keeps pouring so much care and attention into his adorable and emotionally powerful illustrations.
Earlier, Bored Panda spoke to Ben and he was open about how he’d slightly updated the design of Pixie and Brutus and thrown in a few comics where Pixie was a bit older. But before you start worrying about Pet Foolery’s comics changing too much, Ben told us that it’s still “the same ol’ Pixie and Brutus,” just with a few minor tweaks. And a few changes never hurt anybody. They help keep things fresh.

One of the main challenges that recurring cartoon artists face is coming up with new and exciting ideas for what to draw next and where to move the story. Ben is no exception. He was candid that it’s “getting harder and harder” to come up with new jokes and ideas. Fortunately, he seems to be doing great so far and we’re sure that he’ll face the challenge and come out on top every time.
Speaking of challenges, the artist suggested that other creators try mixing things up by trying new things, concepts, formats, and styles if they feel like they’ve hit a creative roadblock. Being flexible and open to novelty seems to help.
