Last month, I decided to do an Inktober challenge, combined with a set of “Drawlogies” prompts inspired by the science show “Ologies.” Here is the entire month’s worth of prompts. I’m re-rendering many of them in different styles, and I’ll be posting some of those as I go.
The Prompts:
Read moreBefore there was a Teacup Rex blog, there was concept artwork. At the time, I never intended to use this as a blog of my own . . . I was just squatting on the URL so I could sell it for millions of dollars someday, when some genetic genuis finally engineers a tiny T. rex. (And yeah, I’d still sell it for the right price haha), but I’m glad to have an actual blog here now. And also some cute artwork (drawn by me).
In the labs I teach, we give weekly quizzes, and I encourage my students to do artwork for me (and I give a tiny bit of extra credit to any student who draws something for me on his or her quiz). I’m not picky about drawings; stick figures count the same as something more realistically drawn. Sometimes, however, I find that students have drawn tiny little masterpieces for me. This semester, one student in particular, whom I shall call Ms. B, drew the most amazing turtles for me, almost every week. Here are a few of them. AREN’T THESE THE MOST ADORABLE THINGS YOU HAVE EVER SEEN????? Oh yes. Encouraging my students to draw things for me was a very, very good idea.
Drawn by me. 🙂
One of the things we were required to do in Paleontology was to keep a notebook with field notes, and also illustrations of specimens we’d studied in class. I’m pretty happy with the way some of these drawings turned out, so I thought I’d post them here.
