A little volunteer work I'm doing for the new school one of my kids is starting at this year. The mascot is a phoenix that teaches kids how to play with fire safely (parents, I'm joking!). Although I can't help but wonder how long it's going to be before they ask me to replace the fire with bubbles or draw him in an anti-smoking ad.
I'm open to suggestions, including any ideas you might have for his name. My wife laughed when I called him Lighty. She said his name should be something way more dignified, like Flamey. As you can see, I desperately need your suggestions.

Gorgeous image, as always. Painter?
As for a name, there's obvious ones...Sparky, Ember, Roasty etc.
Maybe Habanero?
DUDE! THIS IS OUT-FUCKING-STANDING! I LOVE THE COLORS AND THE SHAPES YOU USED!
Spectacular! Did you purposely hide the pen-nib deign in the tail?
Howzabout "Ash" for a name?
I vote "Ted".
man what a lucky child, this kid of yours, hehehe.. :)
this is superb, Samwise.
really love the lighting and colors. so vibrant and live.
and he looks like a 'Julian" to me.
:)
keep the wonderful work right up, mate!
P.
1) Embers
2) Smouldar
3) Burnie (sorry)
Keith...
How 'bout Blaise, like Blaise Pascal. It sounds like a "fire word", but with more meaning.
You need to make use of Cougar since Daisy's a girl.
Cougar Phoenix sounds just right.
For some reason, Aladdin hit me right away. Ember?
Very beautiful work, naturally.
LOL! Love the image! How about, Ignatius? ;) And by the way..Flamey!!??? LOL! Your wife has a good sense of humor!
I'd suggest a weird name, "Fireiceous". You can play with the end to make it more interesting, something like "Fireizeus"... I don't know.
I think Kwan's got a winner...Ignatius! Love it. I second that one lol.
Thanks for all the ideas!
My favorites so far:
Ash
Ember
Sparks
And, of course, Ted
I also like Ignatius, but is there a shorter version? Seems like a mouthful.
Zim: I'd suggest Fireiceodius, or, Fireanous.
Beth: Yes! The Ute fans would be furious.
Short version for Ignatius would be Iggy, but you kinda lose the whole 'Ignite' thing behind it.
Course you could always go with Ignitey...but I dunno.
'Ash' also gets my vote.
Another Ted's fan over here.
LMAO... no idea for a name - probably because I'm still laughing over the playing with fire SAFELY comment...
Gorgeous work, though. The colors and brush strokes are lovely.
Love what you do and how you do it Sam
one of these days I need to come get some learnin from you with your light and color magic. ( Im afraid of the paint stuffs..)
and if you ever feel so inclined to paint something o mine well I may just pass out...would be a goodness over load
I speak about children´s drawings in my blog, and use some examples of your work whith your sons. Amazings.
Thanks.
He's awesome.
I vote "Arizona."
(waaait for it.... Aha!)
Man, lucky kids!
Wow , i could kill for to get your brushes dude .
.It´s wonderful Sam.
Congratulation again!
Wonderfull!
Simply wonderful!
If you joined Deviantart,you'd be a god in a week! X3
How about Quetzalcoatl? Or you can always call it the indoctrinator.
Ignis means fire in Latin and to mean sounds like a good name.
I'm gonna have to go with "Felix". I love your color decisions. Soft and powerful.
This is stuffy, I know but how bout: "Prometheus"
Your work/style is lovely! Looking forward to seeing more.
Is it bad that the first name to pop in my head was "Mr. Phoeny"? And to think I haven't seen Boy Meets World in years... :)
P.S. Great blog/art! I stumbled across it via Abduzeedo.
child of firefox and thunderbird?
