Northern Saw-Whet Owl

A winter migrant in southern Ontario, the Northern Saw-Whet is a very small owl, and feeds mainly on mice and voles. They roost in pines and thick bush during the day, and hunt in fields at night. 

This was done with watercolour 

American woodcock

watercolour study of a timberdoodle. 

a multi-layered panning background

Our main layout project in the fall term was to create a multi-layered panning background of our choice. I made one that would match my action analysis for DQ's animation class. 

I chose something I was comfortable doing, and planned each step out, saving many times along the way. I drew inspirations mainly from Bambi and Over The Garden wall layouts and backgrounds and my own experiences in the woods. 

This was one of my favourite projects so far! I think it turned out alright, I would change somethings, but nothing major. Probably play with colour and lighting more.

Zoo trip.

 That was interesting.

Needless to say I drew and handed in mostly birds.

the Bone Portfolio!

Our bone portfolio was quite the project. 

Assigned the first week of class, we were to take home various replicas of human bones, study them and draw them in 4 different views accurately along with the rest of the human skeleton. Then to assemble said drawings into a book compiled with some sort of theme. 

took 13 weeks to complete, learned lots, and best of all, had fun.
