When life gives you lemons, give them to Otis…
by dogdoodles:
Meet Lucy’s brother Otis. My coworker tells me that he has an obsession with citrus, to the point that he can smell lemons, limes and oranges in the refrigerator and will bark at the appliance until he can sink his teeth into some vitamin C. My coworker says she often finds rock-hard limes under the couch. This is my first draft of Otis, created on my iPad.

“I recently moved to a small city/town in Colombia, west of Bogota. It has not been easy. This has led me to think of a way to make my transition to this area more pleasant. I have started looking into the bright side of things and tried to find beauty in the peculiarities of this land that is Colombia.”

Permalink#PAPERPROMPTS RESULTS The End
Inspired by the stuff of nightmares, our latest PAPER PROMPT was “The End.” Throughout history, people have used pictures to tell stories, so, to coincide with Halloween and Dia de los Muertos this week, we asked you to share the stories that scare you most.
Some creations took on a comical tone; others were chillingly realistic. There were many pumpkins. We’ve featured a few of our favorites here.
Learn more about Paper Prompts, and see all submissions with the hashtag #PAPERPROMPTS on Twitter and Tumblr!
