More life-drawing to report today -- This time, however, with some very different models! I went downtown with a few friends to spend a few hours at
The Austin Zoo & Animal Sanctuary, which is a great place to support and a great place to draw. Animal drawing is, if you'll pardon the expression, a very different beast from human figure drawing -- Along with having to analyze and teach yourself whole different configurations of anatomy, you have to work really quick because it's entirely coincidental on the animal's part if it holds a pose for you. It's great practice for control and accuracy -- Both of which I still need
way more practice in, but that's why I was there. Here are some of the more decent sketches to come out of the afternoon -- Hope you enjoy!
