Alien Invasion *in Progress*

Yup. . .definitely a work in progress :)

((Scroll down to find post with original drawing for this project))

"Someone told me it's all happening at the zoo. . ."

I'm taking an animal drawing class at SVA. . .turns out to be more like a animal painting class as we are using watercolor to
"capture the *spirit* of the animals." Yeah, well anyway. . .I just like drawing animals. . .or err painting them, in this case. Turns out this watercolor technique is really loose and fun. . .but I still want to draw the animals, you know. So maybe I'll do a little bit of this (because it won't hurt me to do something loose. . .and they look kind of cool) and a little bit of drawing.

Here's what I did for the first class at the Bronx Zoo:

Bunnies, rainbows, and kittens. . .

. . .or just bunnies. I just finished reading Watership Down and had rabbits on my mind. I sketched these from my head inbetween projects at work, not trying to catch any character in particular. . .I thought it would be cool to draw one of the Owsla, but it didn't necessarily turn out that way.

I'm back. . .and Alive!

The mutant animals in Maine did not eat me!. . .and I am back :) What a wonderful experience it was! Here is a quick watercolor and sketch that I did inbetween the rains at Echo Lake in Acadia National Park. Enjoy!
