I can't believe I forgot to post these, haha--
Here are my sketches from the last Zoo trip:
And since I had to miss the Field Museum trip, I went to Cosley Zoo with Ken to keep up with everyone:

Just a few of the sketches from the museum yesterday. I had to bump up the contrast 'cause it was pretty hard to see parts of them... Curse my feather-light touch :(
Deinonychus with some unfinished head studies
Stegosaurus sketch
T-Rex sketch with head study
(Sue managed to stay still the whole time! What a gal :P)

Zoo Sketch 05.27.2010
Ian Bobinac - May 27th, 2010 - Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago, IL
...and here, the zoo has decided to decorate with novelty lawn ornaments.
"I don't like small birds. They hop around so merrily outside my window, looking so innocent. but I know that secretly, they're watching my every move and plotting to beat me over the head with a large steel pipe and take my shoe."
Monkeys are interesting...ly boring.
"Monkeys are superior to men in this: when a monkey looks into a mirror, he sees a monkey."
It was hard to see the monkeys in the cages, so I drew the abundance of monkeys around me.
"Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve"
Deer...
"I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her."
I bet the muscles on these cats have atrophied. I didn't see a safari gym anywhere in sight.
"Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you later."
Penguins and Puffins. That's fun to say.
"Penguins mate for life. That doesn't surprise me much because they all look alike. It's not like they're going to meet a really new, great looking penguin someday."
"Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms"
