Hello, all artistic people of The Artistic Writer blog! Growly again, and I have brought with me many ancient (and quite outdated) treasures from the great Noatbuuk (get it? Noatbuuk? Notebook? I know, bad pun). Anyhoo, Sarah had asked me to show her some of my colored drawings, and when she saw them, she suggested posting them here. So, here are the ancient papers...
An albino gryphon, y'know, a mythical creature with an eagle torso and a lion's heinie. I intended him to be albino from the start, but as you can see, I started changing my mind a little on the leg, then kinda dropped it...
The mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex! A favorite among many dinosaur fans, the T-Rex is indeed kingly.
A simple drawing of a gray wolf. The only non-grayscale-looking part in this drawing is the eye.
The majestic king of beasts, the lion. I know for certain that I had a lot of fun drawing the furry mane. :) However, the body of the lion seems a little off somehow...
Some drawing of an unnamed, orange...cat-creature of a sort. Using a fine(and by fine I mean REALLY fine)-tip marker to color this was a real monster of a task, but it was worth it.
Another grayscale picture with only the eye that's colored. This monstrous creature is what I call a wraido. I've been working on a graphic novel for awhile (or at least the character designs) and this guy is one of the many creatures that appear in the story. I doubt you'd want to run into one; they're very, VERY aggressive.
And this one is...a raptor with a melting clock on its head? This actually is a reference to the Salvador Dali painting called "Persistence of Memory". And yes, there are many melting clocks in it.
And finally, a drawing of a bird of prey called a kestrel. One of my favorite predatory birds, the kestrel sure is cute for being a carnivore. I've actually seen one in the flesh in a nearby nature center, and immediately fell in love with the little guy. :)
So, that's all that I have for now. I hope you all liked the drawings I did!
