This series of sketchbook pages were created for a college project where I chose to design a poster for London's Natural History Museum. I decided to draw out some of my favourite exhibits from each of the museum's zones as research, but I think I got a little carried away!

The images in these pages are not meant to be realistic. It was an excercise in trying out different styles, anatomy and media (just had to say that incase you thought I failed at realism. Well, I kinda do... but that's not the point!).

THE DOLPHINS ARE SO PRETTY
And everything else too, really. I love the eyes on the giraffe, and the oil pastel buffalo looks fab.

Thankies! I don't like using oil pastels much but I tried using as many different media types as I felt comfortable with. I guess it's ok, but you like it my dear so

They make me nervous, but then again I can't use anything other than pencil without screwing myself over yet... But your technique is great, they look so prettiful. AWW
