When time and weather conditions doesn`t allow to go outdoors to sketch, I`m browsing through video footage hoping to find an interesting posture or scene...The videos offer moving images which are mostly not sharp enough but this is the challenge for an artist, to try to understand form and anatomy and "transfer " it in to a clear and attractive picture..
..The Thylacine is a legendary species which lived in Australia and Tasmania and seems that is already extinct, since there is no credible evidence that the animal still exist for decades now. Attached, my efforts to depict the animal, starting with the initial pencil drawing , and showing the process step by step to the finished pen drawing. Eventually , I noticed several mistakes on his anatomy, decided to revise the image, started a couple of watercolours, and managed to complete at least one . Forgot to mention that videos taken in Hobart zoo( Tasmania) in the 30`s of last century have been a great help while creating my image. The finished watercolour , I managed eventually to complete
