Mary Johnson Consulting: Zoo sketches

San Diego Zoo animal sketches:

Giraffes (one month old baby, 10 month old male, and mom):

Soemmerring’s Gazelles:

Sichuan Takins (5 pictures):

Notes on Grevy’s Zebras:

(for those who can’t read my handwriting, these notes are, top to bottom:

· Back of ear mottled rather than striped

· Stripes wash out under chin and on belly, but center dark (roany) belly lines and armpit lines

· The center back stripe is plush over hips and tail, descends to body height on midline

· Pales out next to topline at hips

· Sketchy striping side of tail

· Fingerprints at knee fronts)
