S mimoriadne originálnou a zábavnou tvorbou Toma Curtisa a jeho dvoch ratolestí sme ťa na EMEFKA už zoznámili (článok nájdeš tu). Pre prípad, že toto je tvoje prvé stretnutie s tvorbou Curtisovej rodiny, tak v krátkosti zhrnieme hlavný princíp.

Tomove deti – Dom a Al – si (asi ako každé deti) veľmi rady kreslia, a to najmä všakovaké zvieratká. Keďže sú však deti, ich kresby sú veľmi krkolomné, jednoduché a vo výsledku sa vôbec na dotyčné zvieratá nepodobajú. Tomovi však pri pohľade na ne napadol vskutku nezvyčajný nápad. Rozhodol sa ich presne vymodelovať vo photoshope a následne ich zasadiť do reality.

Výsledkom je ohromne zábavná séria fotiek s názvom Things I Have Drawn, ktorá si na internete našla veľké množstvo fanúšikov (k dnešnému dňu ich je približne 780-tisíc). Pozitívna odozva Toma inšpirovala aj k vydaniu týchto výtvorov v podobe knihy. V tomto článku ti prinášame ďalších 20 ukážok z jeho bohatej tvorby. Dúfame, že podobne vydarené kúsky budú v jeho portfóliu aj naďalej pribúdať.

We’ve done a couple of pigs before. (So we turned this into a wild boar.) ___ Hi everyone. So, it’s true – we cheated a bit with this one. In fact, I’ve done something naughty by showing the drawing in black and white rather than the beautiful pink Ally, the artist, originally coloured it in with. That’s right, this glorious 6-legged piggy was sent to us by Megan Farwell and the talented artist is her 4-year-old daughter, Ally, but with at least two pigs on our insta already, we thought we’d turn him into a cuddly wild boar. And Megan and Ally agreed! Could he be the pig’s long-lost furry cousin perhaps? ___ #wildboar #definitelynotapig #thingsihavedrawn #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo

Here’s a dolphin, jumping out of the swell. Is it a robot? It’s quite hard to tell. __ This week we learned that a New Zealand-based company called Edge Innovations has created awesomely cool robotic dolphins so realistic that you apparently can’t tell them from the real thing. But they cost an eye-watering $26m each according to the @guardian. Well – we’ve created our own version that – as with all our creations – also looks exactly like the real thing. But this one’s just a picture – and didn’t cost $26m. __ #thingsihavedrawn #dolphin #edgeinnovations

I know you might think that I’m having a laugh, Well I’m not – because this is an actual giraffe. __ Hello everyone. So we’re currently working on a couple of interesting new projects, but they’re taking a bit longer than I thought they would, so I’ve decided to re-share one of our earliest, but, I think, funniest animals – Dom’s giraffe. Actually it’s probably my favourite rhyme as well. We’ve not shown this exact picture on Insta before – this is the photo from our book ‘Things I Have Drawn at the Zoo’. By the way, we’ve started a new Twitter account. It’s very early days with no followers. There’s just a few of our old favourites on there so far, but eventually we might start previewing stuff on Twitter before it hits Insta. Check it out at twitter.com/thingsivedrawn if you like (it’s ‘I’ve’ because ‘I have’ was too long for the Twitter handle!) Oh – and we’re also on facebook.com/thingsihavedrawn for any older people out there. __ #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo #giraffe #kidsdrawings

What were pterodactyls really like? Definitely flying lizards with a big head spike. ___ Hello everyone. So – I think I’ve mentioned this before: over the past few weeks we’ve received hundreds of DMs asking us to recreate some truly spectacular creations. Thank you so much for sending them – I’m just sorry we can’t do them all. However – this week we've selected this brilliant prehistoric monster by 5 year old Eden, sent to us by @sin.unk. Thank you. (Sorry if this shatters the illusion, but I didn’t actually point my camera up in the air as it flew by. What you see here is part Komodo dragon, part elephant (the wings and tail) and part goat (the horns). ___ #thingsihavedrawn #kidsdrawing #pterodactyl

Yesterday was hot, but today it’s hotter. Here’s a new drawing – the head of an otter. (And his friend.) ____ Hi everyone. Tom here, the boys’ dad. So you can probably tell the reason we’ve not posted for three whole weeks isn’t because I’ve spent so long perfecting the rhyme. Trotter? Blotter? Plotter? Hmm. No – I’ve actually been away with work, so haven’t had much time. But hopefully you’ll like this pic by Dom, and we should be back next weekend with more drawing silliness. (But for now – another lie down, in the garden, under the shade – what a scorcher it is today.) ___ #thingsihavedrawn #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo #otters #kidsdrawings

Fox on the rocks! (Well, actually it’s more like a dry muddy bank, but that didn’t rhyme.) ___ Hi everyone. Check out this awesome drawing of a fox by 4-year old Pasha and DMed to us by his mum @shirinita1979. Thanks for sending it to us – and great job Pasha. If your kid is a budding artist (as they all are), DM us their drawing, or even better, hashtag it #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo. Try and make it a good quality scan or photo if you can. And if they don’t know what to draw, some of the animals that don’t yet feature on our instagram or in our book include a badger, wolf, guinea pig, hamster, woodpecker, puffin and kingfisher – all ones we’d quite like to do. Good luck! ___ #thingsihavedrawn #kidsdrawing #fox

Hi everyone. Tom here, the boys’ dad. I thought that today, for our 300th post, I’d share another of our favourites from our book 'Things I Have Drawn at the Zoo', still on sale at Amazon (a few links below). If you’ve not got a copy, there’s loads of bizarre animals not seen on Instagram. And the book is perfect for both grown-ups and kids.

A few days ago was Chinese New Year. It’s the year of the pig. (Like this one just here.) ____ Hi everyone. Tom here, the boys’ dad. Some of you might recognise this picture – it’s one of many animals from our book that we haven’t shared on Instagram (until now – in this case). The book is called Things I Have Drawn at the Zoo.

Hi everyone. Tom here, the boys’ dad. So, for those who haven’t trawled through all our pictures, I’m going to have to confess – this is basically a re-post. I’m working on a video post at the moment that’s taking a bit longer than expected, so am re-sharing this today instead. It’s one of Dom’s drawings from years ago, first posted in November 2015. ___ If you’re interested in a sneak peek of what we’re working on next, head over to facebook.com/thingsihavedrawn to see a pic. Hopefully we’ll be sharing it very soon. ___ #thingsihavedrawn #sheep

#ad We didn’t expect to see reindeer round here. But drawing one seemed to make this one appear! __ Hi again. Becky here, the boys’ mum. Okay. So, we knew we wouldn’t get to see any wild reindeer really, because they live on the other side of the island. But anything can happen, of course, when Things I Have Drawn is in town! We had a phenomenal time in Iceland. Big thanks to @hotelsdotcom. Hope you’ve liked our posts. And we’ll see you again really soon. #wewhotravel #thingsihavedrawn @hotelsdotcom

#Ad “Masterful stroke work….facile technique… And beguiling proportions of body and beak.” ___ Hi everyone. We were overwhelmed by the response to our last post, The Girl with a Pearl Earring, which, despite being a paid-for post was, incredibly, our most liked ever. Thank you so much. Here’s the second in our series for @mauritshuis_museum – another fantastically famous painting, The Goldfinch, by Carel Fabritius, with a wonderful interpretation by 4 year old Unni, sent in by her mum @ellenlindhblom ___ This week, for our accompanying rhyme, we tried to imagine what an art critic might say about the unusual masterpiece we’ve created together. We couldn’t not make some comment about that amazing beak! Keep a look out next week for the final image in our Dutch masters series. ___ #thingsihavedrawn #mauritshuisathome #mauritshuis #mauritshuischallenge #thehague #denhaag #thegoldfinch #hetputtertje #carelfabritius

#Ad Julia, who’s 7, has shown us how, To make it clear it’s a bull not a cow. __ Hi everyone. We’re delighted to be sharing the final post in our series with Dutch art gallery @mauritshuis_museum. It’s another very famous Dutch masterpiece – ’The Bull’ by Paulus Potter – along with another masterpiece to accompany it by 7-year-old Julia. She’s definitely got all the details right, although the farmer still looks quite surprised. __ #thingsihavedrawn #mauritshuis #mauritshuischallenge #mauritshuisathome #thehague #denhaag #thebull #pauluspotter
