Smudgies

As I've mentioned, I am taking a year-long class, "Y is for Yellow" from Carla Sonheim

In one of the class exercises we had to make a smudge mark with an animal in mind.  Next step, using as few lines as possible, define the animal.  I enjoyed this lesson; it is a challenge to use as few elements as possible to capture a figure or object.

These are my smudgies:

Aardvark

Caracal

Hippo

Wildebeest

Wild Pig

All of them were drawn using pastels and ink.  They are a lot of fun to do :-)
