The Kooky Pet Workshop

Kooky Pets

What is the Kooky Pet Workshop?

The Kooky Pet Workshop is a collaborative project which consist of a collection of imaginary pets that I draw with the input and ideas from you, the readers.

Every Thursday, I pick one idea from each one of you and I put them all together. Then, I draw a sort of Frankenstein Pet and give it a name. The resulting drawing is posted at the Kooky Pets Workshop every Tuesday.

Let’s make a Kooky Pet right now!

You can join by participating in the latest Kooky Pet Workshop leaving a comment with your ideas for the new Kooky Pet. Admission is open Tuesday to Thursday every week. Get sure to check out the rules in the latest Kooky Pet Workshop blog post before you enter because they might change every week.

  • Every 15th of the month I pick a random name from the people who commented on the most popular Kooky Pet of the month.
  • The winner and the winning drawing are announced in the blog on the 18th of every month.
