Blue and Gold Macaw
This didn’t technically start as an online illustration topic, as the parrots were specifically created for Christmas present purposes. The outcome, however, was still a set of variously authored parrot-related pictures, so I figure it counts. As always, see below for the rest.

Group Topic: Dickens Character Coat of Arms

Mr. Krook
Mr. Krook hails from the novel Bleak House as an alcoholic illiterate hoarder of documents, whose claim to fame is one of the most random deaths in the works of Charles Dickens — spontaneous combustion.
See below for other people’s character’s coats of arms:

Tom Bombadil and Goldberry
Well, it’s that time again. The group topic returns, this time with one of our most specific categories to date, and with more participants than ever.

Group Topic: Ewok
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009
So here’s my illustration for our latest group topic, which has the largest number of participants to date—five! We’re hoping to start doing this a bit more often again, possibly focusing on one or two lesser-illustrated Tolkien characters in the near future.
Anyway, want to see the rest of the ewoks? Clickify below!
Cacophony
Friday, March 14th, 2008
And so another episode of Barefoot Kraken wends its way blogward.
Thanks to Mom for the suggestion of cacophony, which, I might (and shall) add, has been the trickiest to date. We persevered, however.
To be honest, the insinuation I’m making in regard to meerkat instrumental capabilities is not entirely fair. In actuality, many scientists dismiss the idea that a meerkat, having found a set of bagpipes, would produce what may be described as an assault on the ears. Others, however, question whether it’s possible to transcend the inherent qualities of the instrument in the first place.
