Antelope | Graphite on bristol | 2020

This series features the horns of African antelope species with their individual, distinctive facial markings. Instead of doing the full detailed heads, I thought it would be interesting to imply the face using the unique facial patterns of each species. I did my best to arrange them proportionally by size.

Springbok, Impala, Gemsbok, Hartebeest, Sable, Kudu, and Giant Eland

The gemsbok and kudu drawings closer up. I originally wanted to do the drawings on one, long sheet of paper, but I found it better to do each one on a separate paper and arrange them in Photoshop. That way, I could get more detail in each drawing and had more freedom to resize the drawings to be proportional to one another.

These are stickers I had made from the gemsbok drawing.
