| "Caterpillar" graphite sketch small leather sketchbook |
Leo said to me today that I should draw things other than horses. While walking, I saw something that looked like a squished caterpillar, and decided that I would draw a caterpillar. I'm not sure of the species, since I got the reference photo from wallpapers.com. Because of its hypnotic pattern, it was difficult to draw. Each segment had to be done a little at a time to avoid confusion. I focused mainly on the contours and outlines of the body, and then the pattern.
I'm looking forward to warmer weather. Drawing this was a nice distraction from the cold February breeze blowing outside! Winter will soon unfold into spring.
