reusing sketches

A short and simple blog post this week.

31Mar16 Birthday card

It is my nephews 10th birthday .  He lives in another state and  I have been disorganised and ran out of time. I bought a last minute present ( which he loved) and made a last minute birthday card. Usually I like to draw a customised birthday card, that includes something that the person likes or includes an interest they have . This time I used a sketch I had created a few years ago, printed it onto card and added a little extra to make it birthday card.

Below is the original, sketched in Sydney at the Australian Museum in 2011. (in two scans because it was over two pages)

Something serious and sensible and scientific , suddenly become a little bit silly.

    Beautiful drawing! Dinosaur skeletons are one of my favorite sketching subjects! When I sketched one like this, I had to put the tail on the next page, too!
