penguin pencil drawing zebra charcoal drawing gorilla charcoal drawing
I've always been fascinated by animals, and have been drawing them ever since I can remember. I find inspiration for my drawings anywhere from the zoo to my own backyard. The goal of my work is to be as realistic as possible and to portray animals just doing what they do. I concentrate on charcoal and graphite, but I also work in colored pencil and pyrography. I have pledged to donate 10% of all my profit to various groups, from conservation organizations for specific species to the local wildlife hospital and rehabilitation center to the local animal shelter.
