Vector drawing of a dolphin carrying a burro and a blue jay

I used Clip Studio Paint Ex to create this vector sketch. One thing I haven’t figured out is how to simplify the lines. That is to say, I want to remove some of the nodes to create smoother lines. I read on the Internet that there’s a way to do this, but this technique seems to be a well-hidden secret.

Next up, I’ll flat this image and put in some shadows.
