About
Little Nuns, unofficially referred to as Nuns And Ducks, is a series of story art by Twitter and Instagram artist Diva featuring a group of nuns and the plump ducks they tend to. Launched in mid-2020, the series has a massive fan following online and has resulted in numerous works of fan art.
Origin
On May 12th and May 16th, 2020, artist Diva (@hyxpk) posted two sketches of nuns.[1][2] The series officially started on July 22nd, 2020, when Diva posted an artwork of a bored nun lying on the floor that received over 550 retweets and 5,700 likes in three years (shown below).
Spread
The series quickly rose to virality, with several artworks posted by Diva in late July 2022 gaining over 10,000 likes in roughly a year. For example, on July 26th, 2020, Diva tweeted[3] a drawing that received over 1,200 retweets and 11,700 likes in three years (shown below, left). On July 27th, 2020, the artist posted[4] an artwork that garnered over 1,100 retweets and 10,500 likes in the same period (shown below, right).
On August 9th, 2020, the ducks made their first appearance in the series (shown below, left).[5]
