Animal Alphabet- Part 3

Since the year began, I have gotten really bad about posting up my work. For the next few weeks I'm hoping to get caught up scanning and posting-up the drawings I've been doing since January.

In my last post a couple of months ago, I wrote about how I have been drawing animals of each letter of the alphabet. These drawings were done from January through February in watercolor and ink. These are letters O-T.  I only have one more set left that I am currently working on!

Animal Alphabet- Part 2

Last Tuesday I posted up drawings of some animals of each letter of the alphabet. These are animals H-N, done in watercolor, and pen and ink. These were completed between September- December 2015. (I didn’t do any during the month of October due to Inktober.) 

I’m currently working on the next set, and when I’m finished I’ll post them up!

Animal Alphabet- Part 1

Since August, almost every week in my sketchbook, I have drawn an animal for each letter of the alphabet. Each animal is drawn using watercolor and ink. These are animals A-G, done between August through September. 

I’ll post the next set soon!

Sketchbook Update- Creature Drawings

In my post last week about observational drawing within my sketchbook, I mentioned that I have been also doing creature drawings in my sketchbook also. Once a week, I have been drawing different creatures, even if they are not actually real. These drawings have been fun done to do, especially since it takes a break from drawing realistically all the time. Overall, I have been having fun working on this inside of my sketchbook and I am planning to continue this.

I also forgot to mention in my last post that I have been also experimenting with hand type along with my drawings.

Each drawing was done in watercolor and ink. These were also done between May 20- June 3.

Also, if you want to see what I'm drawing, sketching, or even painting, follow me on my Instagram, @kathierupert. I update a couple times a week!

Memphis Zoo Drawings

This past semester was my final semester going to the Memphis Zoo to draw the animals every week. Each week, I tried to do at least a spread of some of the animals in the part of the zoo that we were in. Each drawing was done in pen and ink.

Zoodle Drawings!

Starting last October 2013, the illustration department at my school has been going to the Memphis Zoo once a week to draw the animals.  I went every week with my classmates, and tried to draw as many animals as I could.  These are my 10 favorite sketches that I did.
