These are drawings out of my sketchbook. I really enjoy drawing animals, but have also spent a bit of time studying anatomy.

This was drawn with a ballpoint pen- but don't be too impressed, my subject wasn't moving. This was drawn from a photograph as part of a study I did, learning to draw big cats.

This is a baby Kenya Impala- it was so elegant and beautiful and precious, and only a few weeks old at the time!

This is a Mhorr's Gazelle. They are tan and have white underbellies.

An African Elephant, in between pacing back and forth.

This is a baby Turkoman Markhor. As adults, they are very large and hairy with huge spiralling horns. This baby was literally bouncing off the walls and wouldn't hold still. I had to do this drawing a very little bit at a time, which is why it's not as detailed.

This is part of a study I did on human anatomy, particularly the bones and muscles of the body.

They say zebra stripes are like fingerprints. If this is true, you should be able to find this zebra at the San Diego Zoo. This was drawn from real life- I paid this zebra $20/hour to stand still for me.
