Bronx Zoo Sketches

I was happy to be a part of the summer program the Society of Illustrators offered during the month of July to many young artists as it gave me the opportunity to learn from them and experience the Bronx zoo! My best experience was coming into the zoo hoping to get a 10 min pose from an animal. Then I saw a young boy taking his sketchbook out without a second thought and draw a moving otter. This made me realize I needed to change my approach. It think this is the best way to approach an experience like drawing at the zoo. No over thinking!!!!
