different ways to draw impalas - animal alphabet challenge - episode i

This week, I show you a few different ways to draw an impala. Using a sharpie marker pen and some mixed media paper, I start with a fairly careful depiction of the full impala, sketching in everything from antlers to feet and then use cross hatching and dots to add tone. Next I show you a loose gestural sketch of an impala head and neck and antlers, keeping things fluid and using only partial outline. The third technique, I show you how to quickly apply a simple tonal treatment to draw an impala at the water's edge. You can see two of the finished drawings here:
