Testing out some energetic pastel hatching on this photo of a duck I took in Confederation Park a while ago.
Fast fast messy sketch of some mantids! Coloured! Featuring a praying mantis I found (photograph) and this silly guy (Rhombodera sp.)(the illustration) on iNat!
Ringed seal! Smallest and most common arctic seal. Apparently there’s a fancy “new” distinct ecotype in Greenland that was described this year! :-)
[ID: an illustration of a grey seal with white ring markings on its back in profile facing to the right. It is laying on ice with its head up, against a purple and orange galaxy background. End.]
I have a lot of ongoing projects currently and a little spare time for personal art, but I really want to make at last six drawings for this year's challenge. Please cross your fingers!
Which wild cats would you like me to draw? Let me know in the comments!
