Keep showing up. Even when things don’t go as expected and everything feels hard. Just keep going. ✍🏻 #sketchbook #SciArt
Sketch inspired by a 1943 pic someone took of their dog in a Photo Booth at Grand Central Station. People have always loved their furry friends. 🐾

Inquisitive penguins. #SciArt #sketchbook
Today I spotted some packages of 12x18” Manila drawing paper on clearance. Bought a couple. School supply type paper, but fine for practice. So, heads up fellow artists- Be sure to check clearance sections for paper, pencils, etc.

Just a quick sketch tonight. Thinking of Jane Goodall. What a life she lived. May she Rest In Peace. #SciArt

Atlantic Pollock. Pollachius Pollachius. Light and water causing the subtle stripes. Can honestly say it’s the first time I’ve drawn a lip off the page. 😄 Tails, yes. Lip, no. Ah, well. It is what is #SciArt 🦑 #sketchbook

Such a great start. 👏🏻👏🏻 It’s going to be beautiful. Love the tones you’re using for the fur. I always find fur so challenging to create. Inspiring, Mr. Hendley. Thanks for sharing this.

Sometimes what we think will be simple is much harder than we image. All we can do is keep trying. That’s how we learn. WIP Echidna, face half in shadow, long snout seen raised and head on. #SciArt #sketchbook

Should not have posted so late last night. This wasn’t quite ready. Tiny koala redo. Lightened the blanket and added more definition to koala. 🤔 Looks better. Color really would have been best. Anyhoo, now calling it done. #sketchbook #SciArt
