Day 22

This is Monifa having breakfast. She is a Pygmy Hippo calf that was born at the Taronga Zoo in Sydney last year. It had been 23 years since a Pygmy Hippo had been born at the zoo.

Her trusty chick is making sure she polishes off her bowl so she can be big and strong. Click here to see a video of Monifa when she was 3 weeks old.

Day 12

I thought I would try something different. I've never sketched/painted a migration pattern. A more detailed series would be fun I do believe.

Day 7

You can see in this baby Magpie's eyes that he is just waiting to grow up and peck your eyes out. Aren't babies of all species supposed to look sweet and kind-hearted? This charcoal and pastel sketch is on a piece of 11"x14" drawing paper. Tuesdays = 12 hour workday which in turn = smaller, meaner sketches.
