Pilla

Pilla

Medium: Pencil, Digital/Photoshop, Image Size: 27.25″h x 16″w, 2022.

Pillas are color-morphic and can change colors and values instantly depending on their mood. Most of the time they are happy-go-lucky critters and radiate a rainbow of colors like this portrait of a happy Pilla fellow. Along their long segmented catapillar-like bodies they have several sections that can inflate into very large balloons that enable them to float.

A Birdoggin is a cross between a bird-like creature and a dog-like creature. The males are colorful so that they can attract females. They are very proud, vain, and, in my opinion, very handsome.

Barnipins are amphibious creatures with barnacle-like features and super sensitive whisker-like antennae. They really stand out in a crowd due to their colorful skin, but they are somewhat bashful.

Yupyup

Medium: Pencil, Digital/Photoshop, Image Size: 24″h x 16″w, ©2022.

Yupyups are jolly critters with super sweet personalities. They are known to have voracious cravings for fruit. Fruit of just about anything you can image will transform them into lolly gagging fruitaholics. The sweeter and juicier the fruit the happier they will be. If you love fruit, hang out with a Yupyup, and they’ll find it far and wide by using their fruit scent sniffer lobes.

Rootarian

Medium: Pencil, Digital/Photoshop, Image Size: 16″h x 22.25″w, ©2022.

Rootarians are very talkative and, and they love to sing. In fact, the root-like cords that embellish their craniums have extraordinary vocal cord qualities that vibrate in harmony with their singing. They are not bashful. They became known as Rootarians because their craniums resemble root-like structures.
