Abi Toads always wanted her illustrations to bring wonder and magic into people\u2019s lives, and she found a way to get it done. Her illustrations and animated shorts are as adorable as it gets, and they wouldn\u2019t be the same without Mushlings, the quirky mushroom creators that inhabit her imaginary worlds.\n\n\n\n
Abi has come a long way since she first started her Instagram page in 2021, and she attracted over a million followers in just three years. It\u2019s been a joy to watch her skills evolve as she made progress with her illustrations and started working on more complex animated videos.\n\n\n\n
One thing that didn\u2019t change are the themes she enjoys exploring through her art, and there\u2019s a reason why mushrooms often take center stage. Abi decided to put them front and center because they are \u201cquirky and strange, yet cute little beings\u201d, and it\u2019s extremely fun to come up with personalities for them because there are so many species out there.\n\n\n\n
