Great place to draw and not only animals, the greenery around is fantastic too, some groups of people and/or individuals are also worth a shot.
Anyway, a great few hours scattered here and there with the inevitable thought of 'some of these animals look really out of place...'. Fantastic opportunity to see them live and in motion otherwise.
Btw I just read at 'Lines and Colors' about the 'Freelancers Union' (see links). -Very- interesting.
Very nice :-)
ReplyDeleteLa última vez que yo fui al zoo no lo pasé tan bien, la gente es algo pesada con los animales, y no puedo dibujar agusto. Por eso estos dibujos tuyos tienen aun más merito. Hiciste la tinta directamente en vivo, o tomaste apuntes que acabaste en casa? pregunto porque te han salido especialmente bien..:)
ReplyDeleteGrandes, muy buenos...
ReplyDeleteNice gestural quality to these. Sweet!
ReplyDeleteMan that is amazing and incredibly difficult. I tried it once and failed miserably. Me=humbled
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to get my sketchbook and brushpens out of storage and into the jungle... so inspiring

Que alucine los bocetos de los monos balancendose, tan sueltosy esquematicos, y tan definidos al mismo tiempo. No dejas de sorprender!
ReplyDeleteUn saludo

Marcos, you are amazing -- what beautiful sketches. I really can feel the weight of that monkey swinging from branch to branch.
ReplyDeleteYou need to contact the Sharpie marker company. I think they would be surprised to learn that their fat marker is a finely tuned artistic instrument of choice for one of the premiere artists in the world. :)
Beautiful!
ReplyDeletecool! it looks digital to me, what did you use for hardware/ software?
ReplyDelete-Thank you all for coming by and for your comments!
ReplyDelete-Thanks Marcelo!, the monkeys were definitely something else, they sure had an attitude worth transferring on to a piece of paper :)
-Daniel, the color is photoshop on a Cintiq, but if you are talking about the drawing, it's a sharpie marker as Marcelo was saying.
Hola Marcos!Quin domini de la anatomia animal,be que he de dir,genials.Salutacions,espero estiguis be.
ReplyDeleteStrong work!
ReplyDeleteés increíble com una taca negre pot esdevenir un mico, aquesta és l'essència de l'apunt, capturar formes i sintetitzar volums, mai fer descripcions del contorn
ReplyDeleteets un crack
These are beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteHey Marcos,
ReplyDeleteAwesome sketches! I especially like the monkeys.
I'm L.A. now and finishing up on my portfolio, so I can start the hunt:)
See you soon,
-Hans
