A couple of initial thoughts on frogish faeries. I've got some more and some less human concepts that might get doodled up later this month as time allows. Still trying to make hair work on them...
And of course, the guy on the left isn't actually missing an arm; I just got carried away with drawing his vest and wanted to keep it as a costume study so I made my little hatching note that I use in turn-arounds.
Naturally after drawing frog-fae comes a toad variation. Toads have so much skin texture that giving her human hair doesn't seem to clash as badly as it would with a frog's smooth skin.
She seems awfully possessive of her blueberry.

While not tied to this post in particular: I stumbled upon your artwork sometime ago and I now have stumbled upon this wonderful blog. You are incredibly talented and it has been many, many years since I have truly fallen in love with an artist's work. Thank you for sharing this.
I love the idea of these and your wonderful sketches! They would make marvelous dolls.
Annon - Thank you for watching, you're very kind.
FairiesNest - Thank you! Once upon a time I did sculpt/sow a little doll of a rabbit. It was a lot of fun!
The toad faerie reminds me of Dr. Caligari. :)
