Frog Prince (private commission)

Kara, a dear friend, requested artwork for a tattoo. She wanted to commemorate the birth of her son and the purchase of their first family home, and wanted to use the image of a frog prince. I decided to use Procreate to create line art for her tattoo.

To achieve this look, I:

• Interviewed Kara to understand her inspiration and desired look for the end product.

• Studied pictures of frogs from different biomes.

• Sketched many frogs.

• Refined the line work for the top three images.

• Created alternate eyes and crowns with new layers.

• Presented the finished three images to Kara.

This was done before I had any working knowledge of Adobe Illustrator. I love the UI of Procreate, and I think it worked well for this project. In the future, I may try Illustrator after sketching with paper and pencil.
