Thank you a lot guys for keeping me encouraged to draw/paint more Fraggles :coy:

Quick Mokey painting, too quick! Eyes look a bit off... I love this style, though.
Boo-bear (pun-title intended), used as an icon for my deviantArt account.
Wembley painting, I oversized his snout, but still a good (and really fun to do) one :coy:
Boober without scarf, because I forgot to paint one :smirk: Despite the loss, I think, it's a well-done piece, especially considering the fact it's a quickie, too.

An update. A poem. Not really about Muppets, neither do I relate it to Fraggle much, but it could be sang by Mokey. Old stuff, actually. January 6. Bear in mind, English is not my native, so I'm not very good at it. :big_grin:

For the artist

“All alive beings," I spoke,
“Disclose the sacred affair!
Pick up the paper and paint a stroke,
Give it your heart, give it some air.
Don’t be startled by critics,
Practise it more and more.
Ignore words of one who nitpicks
By finding the respected mentor.
He will listen to you
Giving reasonable critique and clue….
Save it for less lucky days,
Keep it within your heart
Until there will be no any praise
For your lively and sprightly art!"
My lasting speech was interrupted,
“It’s useless, it’s a waste!
It’s nothing about you ranted!
It got no move, no taste,
Indeed, it’s an useless thing.
Why did someone invent this unfair affair?
Creating pictures from scratch, from nothing,
It’s a black magic, we’re aware!u201D
Animal tribe was blind
To grandeur the art carries…
Why? I think, it is a jealousy kind.
Art, like something impossible, like faeries,
Makes them fascinated and charmed;
They believe in earthlier matters,
They believe in place they farmed,
They become braggers…
“How can you hold your love
Inside the soul for years?..
What can you be sure of
When you can’t express the feelings for dears?
It should be a pain, I believe.
Release your feelings through canvas!
Think of a goal to achieve,
Don’t let troubles make your nervous.
Strive for your goal, strive for your soul,
Be live for your loved ones, be live for unloved ones!
They’re in need, they’re bullied,
You’re a creator, make them slightly greater,
Portray the reality, but let it remain arty,"
I ranted enough,
I vented enough,
See for yourself
And endear the world with paint located on paper.

A huge update. Since my last update here in this thread I've developed a lot of new skills, art-wisely.
If I upload all of my Fraggle things, this thread will be sure dead, and it's not that it will be interesting to watch all +100 new pictures :smirk:

The latest - 100th Mokey portrait
Because I mostly collect and put all stuff together, here's a link to my scrapbook at dA. There you can find +20 Mokey/Boober (not together!) portraits, Lew Zealand, Kermit, Blue Frackle, random puppet-like creatures, Mildred, unfinished Cantus, and more.
And +40 dogs

Yep, you can find even this Mokey portrait which is on my avatar and on my page. It's my favourite, boo. :crazy:

Gorgeously rendered! I admire your mastery of the medium. I love guoash/watercolor but am not very skilled with it...and doing it digitally sounds wonderful, and clearly gives you great results. Ah, I NEED an iPad...sigh...
