Beautiful creatures featuring all kinds of animals: drawings of mammals, amphibians and insects.
German artist Anastasia Mattern describes the following, as the inspiration for her art: “Animal and botanical drawing in ink and colored pencils”.
Some of the drawings have two versions of the animal: one in color and the other in black and white. Sometimes they sit apart on the page, while other times they interact as in the case of vultures.
Some insect illustrations too. If you have a fear of them, you might want to stop at drawing five and scroll straight down to pick up the last two. Eagles and big sheep.
Enjoy the wildlife in this post and the start of the weekend. I will leave the beautiful art of Mattern.
