Graphite
Some creature study inspired by Nitzus’s photo. There was something in the eyes of this babirusa that appeared both feral and docile to me. The cat and crow are weighing in.

What an unusual and amazing creature. I love the line between pages because it looks like he is dipping his head underwater which adds a sense of transformation, another layer to the duality of his nature.
I never would have seen what you see. Your comments are much appreciated!
Fantastic! Lots of action, I can feel them struggling, the shift of weight, nice job Elena!
Thanks Christina!
I loved it so much dear Elena, this is amazing. Thank you, love, nia
thank you Nia.
superb interpretation elena. love it! 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration.
I agree, the eyes have it. I’d love to see this in color.
Thanks!
Very nice! How do you make your graphite so neat and tidy? Mine always makes a big mess.
I erase the schmutz and digitally take out the rest when I scan.
Oh, magic tricks huh, should’ve known. ^^
You ask, I’ll tell;)
Never met a babirusa before! Not sure he’s enchanted…
This is my first babirusa too!
He does seem to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder…or is that a cat?!
This drawing stacks up beautifully. My bad puns for the day…
I enjoy your puns.
great one! A story, yes!!
Yes:) Thanks Carol!
Super drawing. The fun element has made the animal less fearsome and more approachable than he first appeared.
Thanks Louis. I suppose he is more approachable.
Yes, those eyes…fantastic sketch.
Thank you!
Whoa! That is one strange looking beast! You rendered him wonderfully from the photo – that’s actually what it looks like. I love how you’ve added a domestic animal and a wild but common one. So now I am wondering what they might have to talk about!
You bring up the very best questions Cindy. Love to be in on that conversation…
