Dragon Mascot

Finished dragon mascot (I'm so proud of this little guy. He is so adorable. :D )


Full logo. The colored backgrounds are there to test what the logo might look like on possible t-shirt colors.

December Sketchbook Pages #2, Illustrating Preschool Song, School Mascot



There is a song we sing in the preschool class I work in called Dicky Dicky Dinosaur. It is the only song we play that doesn't have an official book or video to go along with it. So the teacher I work for asked if I would make one. Here are the roughs I've done so far.





After I lay down all the visuals with blue pencil ( the non photo blue) I'll go back in with Prismacolor pencils.

The school I work at is a junior primary center and is also fairly new. The staff has just recently decided on a mascot (dragon) and school colors(navy blue and burgundy). The secretary, who is actually a friend of mine, was telling me about having trouble finding a dragon mascot. She didn't want to steal anyone's work and she also didn't want to use a scary looking dragon. So I offered to design an original dragon mascot that was fit for a  junior primary center.

Here are the trial drawings.




Here is the final design approved by the secretary and the director of the school (we don't have a principal).

October Sketchbook Pages #2 & More Digital Sketches

Found a blog called Cup O' Doodle, where they upload a doodle or several doodles for artists to create sketches or designs from. This is a method I already love to use for warm ups or to spark ideas so I'm glad I stumbled upon Cup O' Doodle.
