Turtles..
 By jgiar at 2010-08-04  By jgiar at 2010-08-04 Nope. They ain't got masks...nunchucks or sai's. But if they did carry weapons, we'd be in for serious ass whoopin's. I did these for the Ripple project started by illustrator Kelly Light. A site dedicated to helping the ocean life in the Gulf try and recover from the devastating oil disaster. It works pretty simple, pick a piece of art on the site. Notify Kelly and her crew, she holds the art while you run over and donate $10.00 for non pros, or $50.00 for pros to 1 of the 4 organizations helping clean and care for these poor creatures. Send her the proof of payment, the artists sends you the original. I just sent these tonight so it may take a few days for her to get them up. If you're interested in purchasing or you're an artist and would like to donate some art here's the link. http://ripplesketches.blogspot.com/ My thanks to Ingrid Hardy (jedipencil)for the hook up. It made me feel amazing to do this. |

Does look beautiful, well done, Jim. However, I was expecting the teenage mutant ninja variety

Actually, I'd just love to see swimming ninjas added to these images as is.

I'd have had a hard time splashing ink on those nice drawings. looks like a combo of markers and colored pencils? |

I was thinking TMNT as well, but I'm ok with this. The coloring is amazing.

My wife wanted copies of these...until I dropped the ink on them. I tried to make them as bright, rich and vibrant, knowing I was dropping ink. Kind of trying to make a statement. Thanks again. J. |

I admit, I thought there was going to be ninjas involved.
Still, you did a great job!
