I have officially reached the "ugly phase" of the Bull Elk (Cervus canadensis) illustration. 🤣🤘🖋

The marker undertone looks like a mess just before I add the Prismacolor details. Stay tuned. 💙🤙

More progress in the Bull Elk (Cervus canadensis). Here I am adding the background & then will start with the marker base colors on the animal (also known as the "ugly phase"). Lastly I will detail with the Prismacolor pencils.

Stay tuned!! 🤙💙

My last few illustrations. Some were more time-intensive than others. 🤣

Which one is your favorite?

Adding the marker background to the Bigeye Thresher Shark (Alopias superciliosis). Putting in a little green to darkening it up a bit. 🦈🤘

New start!! The outline kind of gives it away. Bigeye Thresher Shark (Alopias superciliosis). I've done sketches of this species before but never a detailed illustration.

Time to change that. 🦈🤘💙

I will soon be doing a larger, more detailed piece and I'm just trying to understand some of the ins and outs of their patterns.

Why?! Just because. 🤣🤘

I asked myself "What's have you always wanted to draw, but haven't?"

Donkey came to mind. I just find them so personable and adorable!! 💙🫏
