This week's exercise
required me to go to the zoo...
and it's winter.
I can barely make it to the grocery store
(and if you want to know how serious
I am about that, consider this...
we ran out of salt two days ago.
Salt.
Two days ago.
And I will still not go to the grocery store.)

So, no...even if we had a zoo,
I am not going.
Instead, I watched this on youtube
and pretended I was at the zoo
in the comfort of my own home.

Again, not to be redundant
but in the spirit of being honest,
I really didn't think I was going to like this exercise.
But it ended up being fun
and not nearly as frustrating
as I had feared.
I think the fact that this is also based on
process not final product
helps and hurts me...
I like something to show for what I did...
and I am not always happy with the
"process" photos...
but I'm going to stick with it.

I had really intended to try this again
but with a different animal but time got away from me.

NEXT UP - A DAY AT THE ZOO...part two (well....looks like I will get my chance to try drawing a different animal after all!)
