Iāll definitely do this later!
Iām a professional artist, so this was a fun challenge! Iāve got lots of 4 legged pets, but I figured one of my snakes would be a better fit. I finally got my first ball python(s) (got 3 together) so I figured my little pastel female would be great for a 5 minute challenge since her colors pop so well.
Theyāre too fast to get out and model, but I have their baggy-pants-sausage-body shape stuck in my head anyways
Oh WOOOOOOW! This is amazing!!! @rconder Thank you so much for posting! What other kind of art do you do? And if you donāt mind sharing, what medium did you use to create this?
AAAgghh! This is ADORABLE @hs-goldfish ! (And I love your very accurate description) . Thank you for sharing your doodle!
Looks digital
@lumpy agreed! Iām interested in finding out what program as well; I may be interested in trying it out with my doodles just for fun . Also, Iād LOVE to see a doodle of Shebert!!!
Lol I donāt know, I canāt draw to save my life.
Thatās ok! No judgment here: that is the greatest part about the 5 minute time limit. It allows for varying and unique output levels.
Besidesā¦ if it doesnāt end up looking like your buddy @lumpy, weāll just tag it Abstract art and it will be a huge hit ā¦
I will see what I can do then lol
Here we goā¦Sherbet
I know it isnāt very good but I did it lol .
I was over here erasing and redrawing the scales cause Iām so concerned about the scale count placement of boa constrictors
This is AWESOME! Thank you so much for posting, @lumpy! I love the different perspectives we all end up given that same 5 minute time frame.
And thisā¦

ā¦ is EVERYTHING! Great job Riley, and thank you for playing along!!
This is just a pen brush on an ipad! I didnāt have paper and pencils/pens accessible so I had to make do. When Iām traveling (happy thanksgiving to all Americans out there!) I usually use it just do do sketches and get ideas down. Full time, Iām a professional oil landscape painter and hike and paint in the mountains.
Thatās awesome, @lumpy! I intentionally used pen because I knew if I used pencil, Iād spend the whole 5 minutes erasing stuff.
I did the same thing and used a sharpie pen, otherwise it be erasing and redrawing lol.
Doodled some of my noodles (and my gecko!)
Edit: These each took only a couple minutes to do, I draw art for my main income and have mastered the ability to draw quickly. These are all referenced off of actual photos of the snakes featured!
This. Is. AWESOME! I love the use of color and am inspired to do the same with some of my boas! Thank you @willbird for sharing your doodle!!!
These are GREAT! I LOVE the different perspectives (especially Nutmeg and Checkers looking right out of the page as they are biting themselves- or you)ā¦ and is that a snake named Susan? Yay!
Thank you so much for sharing @trnreptiles!
And if you donāt mind me asking, what is your job? I am incredibly intrigued by the idea of art as a main source of income. There are a few folks who have contributed here who are traveling and/or full-time artist and I think that is the coolest thing, am super inspired and would love to hear more if/when you have a second.
In any case, amazing art !
Thanks again!
