A day at the zoo
My son and I enjoyed a beautiful day at the San Francisco Zoo last Sunday. On this trip we walked pretty much the entire zoo seeing all the animals most of which happened to be quite lively except for the lions and tigers (they always seem to be napping). One of my favorite animals are the gorillas. I took a picture of one of the gorillas sitting on a big boulder. He seemed as interested in us as we were in observing him. I took several pictures and when I returned home I sketched the drawing you see here. A few days later I created this painting based on the sketch. I'm trying to pay closer attention to rendering texture with line and using color to create form.
