Illustration: Patate Douce pour t-shirt

 

A t-shirt design for my 2-year-old nephew. I made similar shirts for his older cousins last year so now he will have one. The ankylosaurus was fun enough to draw and I am keeping to the more details and shaded style of the fries image I just did. I will need to update the characters for the older kids next. There are lots of versions of this type of dinosaur and just mixed and matched characteristics to my linking. It's fr fun, not science! (Patate douce is a sweet potato, BTW.)

Exhibition: The Lost Kingdoms

 On one of my typical cycling routes this week I turned a corner and was confronted with... Dinosaurs! Oddly this happened last year as well in a completely different location. Last year was a science museum  show we took out 3 year old nephew to and he loved it. This one is outside in an enormous park. I came back a couple days later when more of the creatures were assembled and spent an hour photographing them for my nephew. The park is NOT easy to get to, I only know how by bike but there must be some other way if they expect people to see this. I ride early in the morning so even though it was 2 hours from my house it was only 7 am when I arrived and no one was there. It seems there will be a 20$ fee when it's all installed and some of the dinos will move and there will be sound effects and plaques with information for each animal. In my photos I took away the metal stands etc used to support the life sized recreations so they would look more real to my nephew. Plus, they are much cooler that way!

Procreate and scanned paper background. Like most kids I loved dinosaurs and decided to do this on a whim. Might have gone a little crazy with the white pencil highlights.
