Routine
Routine- Illustration Friday prompt for August 22, 2008. "Her routine was the same every year...collect nuts and fill the nest for winter; however, this year someone stole her entire stash. Now the snow is falling...'How will I feed my children?', Mrs. Squirrel thought."

Detach
Illustration Friday prompt for August 15 was "Detach." The very first thing that came to mind was that bully in TOY STORY- Sid. You know, the kid next door that destroyed toys and made them into weird combinations then blew them up! Here is a possible one of Sid's concoctions...(Sorry that they are pencil sketches...haven't had time to finish yet.)
...But, I wasn't quite "feeling the word" was being represented in the way I wanted it to until I came accross this knitted tiger...can you believe someone actually KNITS gorey animals?!...
Yet, this somehow had the word expressed at the very core of it's essence..."That's it!" I thought!! So here you have my sketch...(BTW, I showed it to my 5 year old grandson and he thinks I'm really cool now because I drew a dinosaur actually ripping the leg off another dinosaur!
