Newimal Bones

As is the tradition, Art One started the semester off drawing Chick. She's our class skeleton. To gain a better understanding of how the structure of a skeleton works, I thought it might be fun to try to draw the bones of some other creatures.. some very different creatures.

Newimals are any new animal created by combining two or more animals. Each Art One student selected a Newimal, printed it out as a reference and then was challenged to create the skeletal structure for their chosen Newimal.

Here are a few examples in progress...
