Summer Drawing Prompt #1

 I have about twenty or so first through fourth graders I entertain every Friday (when we don't have field trips) at the Child Care that I work for. So for the Summer I've been doing art/craft projects with them. One of the things I do with them every Friday is give them the choice of two drawing prompts. They must choose one and draw it in their sketchbooks. And since I couldn't let them have all the fun, I draw the drawing prompts too. ^_^

Drawing Prompts:

If I could build my dream house . . .

If I could have ANY pet, it would look like . . .

It was a fun exercise, and I colored it quickly in Photoshop. My dream house would be an awesome tree house and my pet a flying narwhal. Hopefully I'll have more fun little drawings like this for the rest of the Summer. 

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

Valentine's Cards

I work at a Child Care, where I and another teacher are in charge of thirty second through fourth grade boys and girls. We both are planning on getting all of our children Valentine Cards, so I designed two cards to come from me. 

FOR THE GIRLS:

 

 My sister inspired this one. I've come to like it a lot, even though there's SO MUCH PINK!

FOR THE BOYS:

Most of my boys are into Pokemon, but I know a few are into Star Wars too. So I opted for drawing Chewbacca, RD2D, and C3PO instead of Pikachu (because I like them better ^_^) 

The following one was done for a few special ladies in my life to receive:

These diddlies were drawn in my sketchbook then colored in Photoshop CS4.

I hope your Valentine's Day goes well! ^_^

Nursery Prints

I was recently asked to design two prints for a lady at work. She is having a baby in October and she wanted to decorate her nursery in a pond theme so she wouldn't have to pick just turtles or ducks or frogs but use all of them. She looked for children themed pond scene prints to hang up in the nursery to help tie her other decor together but couldn't find anything she liked.

So she enlisted me and after asking her what kinds of animals she wanted in the prints, I drew up some sketches which she approved of. I decided to execute them using Adobe Illustrator CS4, hoping to get some more practice in with using Illustrator.

She was extremely pleased with the result, which made me pleased as well.

Enjoy your day!
