Student Sketches

More sketches I drew as a student at the Zoo Duisburg in Germany, around 1978. My art university did not offer any animal drawing classes, so I was on my own. But I really enjoyed sketching at the zoo. Of course you have to get used to comments from by-standing kids like: Are you an artist?  Or: My uncle draws much better than you.

These are all Indian elephants, except for one sketch, which depicts an African one. You better spot it and let me know.....

    1. ...Pardon: Sometimes very little tushes.
      By the way: The sentence of the kids: So sweet and honest! 😄
