Part of a personal project I'm working on right now, to experiment with new art styles and practice lettering skills by drawing animals. The color palette and symmetrical motifs in this one were inspired by the boats on Lake Xochimilco in Mexico, which is the last remaining place wild axolotls live.
This is the beginning of a piece I did earlier this year. I wanted to show the progression of graphite to ink. The next picture I post will be showing the rest of the ink and completion of this piece.
