Welcome to Denizens of Antarctica! I started drawing penguins in 2014 when my family visited Tokyo and we saw the penguin exhibit in the Tokyo Skytree. My youngest got obsessed with penguins and I started drawing them every day (in five minutes or less) before he went to bed. The drawings sort of got more and more involved from that point. I will start with of few of the five minute originals and go from there. I will be adding new drawings twice a week. Enjoy!

 This was the first. My son and I were discussing The "Big Eared Protopenguinis" before bed one night. It was an early pre-historic penguin, you see and the ears eventually grew so big that they flopped down and became modern-day penguin wings. I said I would draw it, and the rest is history.
This was the second. Another early penguin. 


 This one speaks for itself, I guess.

 Another scientific classification of penguin types

The thought I had here was, "What would happen if a penguin buffed up a lot?" Most of the ones I had drawn so far were pretty dumpy so. . . .

Ok, I know. It's been getting worse, not better around here. Well there's a lot going on in the real, non-penguin world going on keeping me away from posting. Keeping in line with that sort of thing, I submit the following: This was drawn for the boy when I, like now, hadn't been producing much in the way of penguin drawings.  You know, while I'm here, I'll leave you with one more drawing before I sign off (it certainly hasn't gotten less busy around here! Have a good weekend!

And the guins keep a comin'

Here is an several drawings I did for the boy one night. The WWII Staff Sergeant Penguin is one a few that I redid with pen and ink later on. Check out the anatomically correct M1A1 Thompson sub-gun! And here we start with naming everything with "penguin" or "guin" in the title. Why? 'Cause it's funny, of course. Duh. Submitted for your approval. . . the Penglasa Raptor. And here is where we start running afoul of copywrite laws. There are many Star Wars, Star Trek and other things to come. Maybe someday I will contact Disney to get the ok to produce a Penguin Star Wars book. Heck, Disney gives people the ok to make Star Wars flavored anything about now. Until then, I guess I'll have to keep all these proprietary characters on the free side. In any case, the question on everyone's mind is what a penguin assassin looks like. Well, they are pretty awesome to behold.  Same thing here. You want to know what a penguin zombie looks...
