Daily Creativity: Frog Princess

Frog Princess - ink & quill
I did another ink and quill piece tonight, a frog princess. I just love the contrast and how well the image pops. I think it looks a million times better IRL (as do most of these) but it scans pretty well by comparison.

In case I haven’t mentioned it before, I adore frogs. I collect them (not live ones, just figurines and toys) before I had a love for dragons I had a love for frogs (and they are related a bit). I don’t know if my parents chose this for me, or if I just loved Kermit too much… all I know is that as long as I can remember I have been frog crazy.

Cute story, my father used to wake me up with the line from Andy’s Gang, “Plunk your magic twanger! Hiya kids, hiya, hiya” you know, when he wasn’t pouring water on me because I sleep like the dead.

Daily Creativity: Monocle Frog (for Leap Year)

Monocle Frog
Disapproving Frog is Disapproving.

In honor of Leap Day tomorrow I sketched a gentlemanly frog for you. It helps that I adore frogs, and for some reason I wanted to put him in as formal dress as I could. I imagine he speaks with a british accent too, yes, yes.

Yes, it is a bit late for this to count for the 28th, but I count the end of the day as when I go to bed, and I haven’t gone to bed yet (it’s 5:30am here right now)
