As I was cleaning and organizing my office the other day, I came across a bunch of my old sketchbooks. One in particular was from when I was in high school. Flipping through the pages reminded me how much I enjoyed drawing when I was a kid! There was one illustration that caught my eye. My teenage mutant ballet turtles! TMNT was one of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid, and it was also the very first video game I ever played and beat for my very first video game console, Sega Genesis. My friends and I would draw these little guys over everything! I don't know how we came about to add tutu's on the turtles and make them dance, but we did and it sort of became our signature characters! 10 years later I decided I should turn this into a digital illustration, just to bring back the happy memories of sitting in the back of my classes with my friends giggling and doodling the school day away. I added the beach scene background. It's always funny to see a bunch of turtles dancing ballet on the beach!
