The Theme:

Halloween Dragons and/or Frogs. Its up to you whether you draw a dragon, a frog or both and whether its spooky halloweeny or Halloween costumes etc.

You can also draw normal dragons (oriental, western, etc) and dragon subspecies or dragon crossbreeds like my own Dragon Cows or Dragon Rabbit. The crossbreeds should have at least 2 features to make them recognisable as a dragon like dragon wings or scales. Dragons come in all shapes and sizes, you can draw every scale or no scales, you can draw faery dragons, dragons with bug wings, dragons with feathery wings like Saphira from the Eragon movie or even dragons with no wings such as the Oriental dragons.

You can draw normal frogs or dragon/faerie/fantasy frogs etc.

You can also take photos of Halloween frogs and dragons.

Here are a few examples to get you going:
