I love the feature to put pictures in your journal, as I have said before. Here are some sketches I did at the San Fransisco Zoo.



Im not an animal drawer, but it was fun and some good practice. My favorites was pretty much the birds and Girraffes. I like birds since their shape is more geometric and straight forward. The giraffes is inspired by Honey and clover where Haggu stared at the giraffe a long time. Also the sketches are darker then usual, since blue pencil is not friendly with the scanner. And also, I felt more relax as I tried to think like Hagu, and to really observe it more.


The main reason I went was to say hi to a guy named RJ Palmer AKA arvalis. You might recognize his works better :)
:iconarvalis:



He attended art academy and he lives in the bay area. It was the whole time awkward. As my usual instinct, when I first meet people, Im a bit shy, , until I hang out more. Fortunately the hanging out more and talking with him didn't happen that much, because I lost the sketching crowd at the Zoo and didn't find him until I called him and met him at the gate at 4pm. So I didn't feel comfortable as of yet. Sorry Arv.
At least now we are kind of friends I guess and he just said to call and hook him up when we are in the city. Of course not like dating, just to talk and stuff about art. And I did enjoy my time. Next time, Ill follow the group.

Good idea taking some sketching things to the zoo, it looks like great practice :D I would do that as well but the nearest zoo is pretty expensive....

This zoo I felt was expensive. It was $25 (15 for tick, 10 for parking)
