Octocat illustration for GitHub Search

GitHub launched an improved Search experience late last year and we wanted to add a bit of Octocat illustration to liven it up. I got the chance to create this illustration of an octocat searching for adventure, that respects the users dark or light mode preferences. We're hoping to bring more of this style of high-fidelity octocat illustration to more GitHub experiences this year, and this was a great stress test.
