Spring

Pamela started this drawing from the bottom, with the flowers.  It started out looking like Spring and evolved into something much more.  This would make such a fun mural in a child's room!

Unfinished Elf Girl

Can't wait to see this one finished and colored with Pamela's favorite colored pencils.

Darryl

Meet Darryl.  It seems like he should be scary, but he's not.  Maybe it's his child-like expression or his chubby toes or his nakedness that makes one feel compassion rather than fear.

Horned Critter

Mermaid

Critter

About this and other make-believe critters that Pamela invents, she says:

This is a little game I play with pencil or pen and paper. I conjure up an imaginary creature, not a monster but a believable-looking creature, and as I'm creating it I consider it's habits and habitat. Is it nocturnal, then give it big eyes... or... I think I'll make this one nocturnal, so it gets big eyes. Aquatic, semi-aquatic, arboreal or terrestrial? Does it dig, tunnel or leap in great bounds? Carnivore, herbivore, omnivore? If it's a carnivore, how does it hunt? Does it need camouflage? Why or why not?
