Hello everyone!!
I want to tell you about a zebra project that I was working on earlier in the year. I run a Facebook page raising awareness about Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and following my charity fundraising progress 'Dinkykts EDS Diaries'.
I needed a header for it and I wanted something personal and different to other pages so I decided to draw my own.
I researched different zebra illustrations so I can then decide how I want my zebra to look. I didn't want a realistic looking one. In the end it came down to two drawings and once it was up, I felt very proud as I had done the work all by myself.
I started it off with sketching pencils (Derwent) and progressed to ink. It didn't take me too long to do it once I started it. It was the first time that I have actually drawn anything to do with animals. So you can say that I surprised myself with the finished product!
Now I even have a self inking stamp with my header logo and to see it on cards and bags (the paper ones I used on my craft stall), it was a good achievement for me.
What do you think of it?
