Leopard and Bushpig

We went to the Natural History Museum to draw one of the dioramas today, and I chose the leopard and the bushpig. Throughout the time I was drawing, families kept coming up to the diorama, and no matter what language they were speaking it was "Blah blah blah blah bushpig." I was really starting to like the word "bushpig" after a few hours.

Frankenstein at Magnolia Bakery

Another Frankenstein drawing! This time we were supposed to put Frankenstein (or Dr. Frankenstein) in a modern NY setting. I chose to put him across from Magnolia Bakery, celebrating his birthday alone with a cupcake.

Brooklyn Botanical Gardens

Last Friday I went to the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens with my drawing class where we were supposed to sketch different plants to use for a single composition later.

Aroma Coffee

Here's an animatic of a commercial for "Aroma Coffee" based off of the reportage from the coffee shops.
