You'll find drawings, paintings, and other assorted creations from all three of our kids here. The name "Whimsical Island" was a brainstorm of all three kids and I think sums up pretty well what you'll see here. We'll have new stuff as well as a featured golden oldie here and there, so stay tuned for regular updates. These kids are not only great artists, but VERY prolific! :)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Here's a few recent drawings from Noah:</span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:georgia;" >Alien Fish Man</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Noah01_FishMan_web.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Ogres on the loose!</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Noah02_Ogres_web.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">General Grievous from Star Wars</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Noah03_Grievous_web.jpg" /></div><br />A few new ones from Lucas:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">A dragon riding knight</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Lucas01_Dragon_web.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Creature design</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Lucas02_Creature01_web.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Fall time scene</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Lucas03_Scarecrow_web.jpg" /></div><br />And last but not least, from Libby:<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Self-portrait as a princess</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Libby01_Princess01_web.jpg" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">A shot of everyone else in the family.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Not quite sure why the boys and Erica have bodies</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">and I don't, but I like it!</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.radikinstudios.com/BlogShots/WhimsicalIsland/Libby02_Family01_web.jpg" /></div><br />Notice too the progression that Libby has made from the first to second picture, now including bodies, not just the heads. It's interesting to see the kids' artwork evolve which is one of the reasons for posting this work. And even beyond that, it's just plain fun to look at!<br /><br />Enjoy everyone! Feel free to post messages to the kids, I'm sure they would love to hear from you on these drawings.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7141357510490565815-2266751434917236822?l=whimsicalisland.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Daniel Hardestyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01671623076078096315noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141357510490565815.post-30691313401327712412007-11-10T11:56:00.000-05:002007-11-10T11:57:14.861-05:00<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7141357510490565815-3069131340132771241?l=whimsicalisland.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Daniel Hardestyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01671623076078096315noreply@blogger.com0
