Earlier this year some friends wanted to organize a virtual run to commemorate the holiday National Lost Sock Memorial Day.
We just called it the Lost Sock Run 2021.
My contribution to the event was developing some designs for the mascot: The Socktopus.
The Socktopus has been living in my sketchbooks since 2012 and seemed like the perfect character to represent an event involving socks.
So for our coloring pages, shirts, and whatever, I illustrated the Socktopus doing some activities like Running, Walking, Roller Skating, and Skateboarding.
This was a fun project to do as it meant giving one of my old designs new life and illustrating all the designs solely on an iPad. I learned so much about painting digitally and working in the ProCreate app.
Make sure to check out my Redbubble Shop to get your own Socktopus shirts and accessories.
You can also download coloring pages for each of the designs.
Running – Skateboarding – Rollerskating – Walking
Color some pages then send me pics!
