Post-it note frogs

So here are a bunch of quick drawing I did recently on post-it notes at work. This is kind of what got me back into drawing after probably about a 6 month hiatus. Posting them on twitter is also what got me to finally start this blog.

Shipwrecked

So this day I had two goes at the task, which as the title suggests, was a shipwreck. I think this is one of those days at work where I didn’t have much to do so I spent a bit more time drawing than I normally would….

Here is my first attempted which ended up being my favourite one. Just some little (or I guess quite large actually) frogs searching a ship at the bottom of the ocean.
The second go at a shipwreck, I had this idea in my heap that there was going to be this big space battle out the window of a ships bridge or space station or something. It didn’t really work out the way I had planned it so I never got around to finishing it. But anyway, here it is.

A little old and a little new

I was a bit bored at lunch time today so I did a quick digital painting. It’s been a while since I done something in photoshop other than texturing 3D models so it was fun to get back into that.
Another old sketch from the drawing tasks day. I can’t exactly remember what this one was but it’s safe to say it had something to do with a hat, a forgotten hat maybe? hmmmm

A couple of old favourites

This my third drawing for the month (we won’t talk about the second just yet, not my proudest) and still probably my favourite. I can’t quite remember what the task was but it was either something to do with caves or trespassing. Which ever it is, this guy doesn’t seem too impressed by the youngens of today.
This one was “Someone from the past reacting to a modern piece of technology” and was drawn right around the time that the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 bursting into flames scandal was going on so yeah, phone on fire is some kind of witch craft.

A Brief Background

So, this is an art blog I have been planning on making for a couple of years now but I guess I’ve just been lazy or something.

When I was a child I was obsessed with frogs, I knew everything there was to know about them and I spent days at school drawing them.

Fast forward to 2016, when I started working in my current office and I had not drawn frogs for year. I work alongside many artists and several of them were doing these daily drawing challenges where someone world pick a subject and see what everyone came up with. I decided to join in. I can’t quite remember how it started but I think the task was an electric frog (or something similar) and so I put my many years of childhood frog drawings into practice. This made me remember how much I loved frogs and brought back the joy of drawing them I had from when I was young. Somehow this turned into me drawing frogs everyday for the next month (or at least weekdays).

So anyway, here I am finally starting this drawing blog. I will start by posting some of my old favourites (with a story to go with them if I can remember the tasks), then once I run out I guess I will have to start working of on new guys.

Here is the previously mentioned “Electric Frog”
