Just Nuts & Bolts
My first attempt at the Blob Brush in illustrator...LOVE IT! I am definitely going to be using this tool a lot more!
Robo Doodles
From left to right: Libyan robot (seen here), maybe a luchador-bot, Iron Giant from memory, something or other, Bluesbot, and the million dollar concept for Robobabies.

The Odd Couple
Regurgitated Piece
This is a guy I created for the Kids Club Magazine in 2004-ish. I was struggling too badly with my favorite subject (robots), so I'm just going to add him for now.

Not a Robot...Mario
My kids only really want to draw superheroes and Mario characters. I cannot motivate the artists to move past these subjects. Sorry robot theme.
The first was drawn by a first grade male. He has drawn King Koopa (clearly at the far right) who is holding the Princess in his magical swirling vice grip. Mario (at top) has come to save her. At first, I thought it was Luigi that was captured and thus did not narrate the correct characters to my male friend, Zak. The drawing below is his rendition of the above drawing. He wants me to color it but I can't stand to ruin good stuff until I've had a few glasses of wine.

Robotosaurus
So I have been falling behind, and since I was not liking the way my other dinosaur movie was turning out I figured this would work. It was one of those ones that just worked. I may color it some more later, but for now this will have to do. Hope you like it!

RabbitoSaurus
Strange as it may be this little bugger wouldn't let me STOP working on it.
I don't care much for it but whatever!

New Theme? Robots or Superheroes?
We can't quite decide which of these two we want to do FIRST. We'll definitely do both but we want to know what y'all think.

Student drawing of a Spineosaurus [sic]
This drawing was done by a first grade male. He knew exactly what he was drawing and knows pretty much everything about dinosaurs. He is a true artist. Also, he wears suits to school every day.
The K–T extinction event
And now we know the truth about how the dinosaurs reacted to the K-T Extinction event. (side note: the dinosaur was not drawn by me. I just did the color and other elements [let the mocking begin]).

Dinosaurs! (and Santa Claus... and a reindeer... and Bella... and Daddy))
I decided to post this because it fit with the theme. My 2 1/2 year old, Bella, told me what to draw, we painted it together.
Also, all those scribbles are Cinderella, Mommy, another reindeer (right by the yellow reindeer's nose) and a rocket ship.
..and they called it the Lucky Charm Massacre.
New Theme: Dinosaurs!
I'd say we were almost unanimously in favor of making dinosaurs the theme. So let's go ahead and roll it out. Go ahead and post your St. Patrick's Day pictures when you finish them and lets get started drawing some dinos.

St. Patricks Day

Suggestions
It seems like the St. Patrick's Day theme is starting to slow down a little. Does anybody have some suggestions for another theme we could kick off?

Not done with the monster...well, alright.

Jolly Old Saint Patricklus!
Actually, Santa's nasty little cousin Dumpling (hey I don't make this stuff up)
had a "brief" encounter with a little person.
The kind that you get to toss at bars. Long story "short",
their baby... had absolutely no relation to Saint Patricklus.

Spider Lift
So it may not be the best color job, but I thought I had better post it quick since the theme is changing. This is what happens when I try to think up a creature while I watch Indiana Jones.

Not St. Patty's themed...Superhero themed
Different student this time...first grade male. I will paraphrase as I do not remember many exact quotes.
The blue is water, duh. The being closest to the bottom is Spiderman with his web being thrown to the top of the scene. The Green Goblin is on top of his board with orange bombs on it attacking Spiderman (He drew the Green Goblin brown so I had to remind him of what color he really should be. You're welcome, folks). I am unsure of who is being attacked at the top of the scene but it does not look good for them. In a later drawing by the same student and another male kindergarten student, I (yes, the speech therapist) was being held captive in jail by the Green Goblin and Spiderman, Batman, and Robin were all trying to save me. Unfortunately, they did not save me but they all escaped before the bomb went off and I died, tragically, at the hands of the "bad guy".
I now fear that the Green Goblin is after me and that even with superheroes, I cannot be saved. Any reassuring words would be helpful.
