The drawing includes a lizard with its tail wrapped around a skull with a bird on top. The lizard and bird is a reference to the types of things I draw outside of school. While the skull represents my lacking interest in drawing human portraits which I had been doing a couple months before I entered this class.

The drawing was made to implement many variations in lines. In the image a camper ends up running into a wolf in the wood. A reason I choose these subjects was my interest in inking fur and tree bark

The drawing is of a average living room. Their isn't any hidden meaning to the drawing, I choose this subject to try to challenge myself to draw something nonorganic and make it feel natural and warm.

The drawings shows a rhino as its is about to take a sip of water it notices someone about to shoot it. The idea for the drawing came from hearing of people using rhino horn for medical use without proof of it being affective and selling it for hundreds of dollars. Itt isn't a topic I have much knowledge in or been extremely passion ate about but still I feel is worth talking about. For the techniques used I tried to make the grass seem like grass and not a solid color and I tried to show bounce lighting.

The drawing is made up of many items which hold some importance to me. The raptor figure represents my passion for paleontology. The camera has many photos from my childhood so I added that. The maidkin and mask were cool looking and it all rest on my sketch book.
