In my work I aim to capture the minute details of nature, specifically the anatomy of animals, to fully appreciate their beauty and curiosities. I use colored pencils to allow myself to spend a long time working on each individual piece, therefore capturing as many details as I possibly can, and further understanding the forms of these animals.
