Wallaby (colored pencil art) Hi my friends! Among artists on the Internet there is such a popular entertainment - art challenges. Drawings on a given topic every day. I sometimes try to participate in them, but there is not always enough free time. This May the theme is "rare animals". I don't know, maybe I can draw at least five drawings in a month. Today the first animal - which is called a wallaby/ These are animals that look like kangaroos but are smaller.

I have never seen them in real life, so I looked at the photo https://7factov.ru/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/2a195194-716x477.jpg I decided to start this challenge with simple tools - colored pencils.

Sketch

I start with a medium gray tone, gradually adding dark gray and brown shadows, inside the ears and in the eye sockets.

I detail the muzzle with black color, draw the eyes and nose

Next, I draw the body of the animal. On the belly of the Walabi, the hair is longer than on the back. I show this with the appropriate strokes of the pencils. I try to keep light and shadows...

The upper part of the body, in the region of the chest and neck, is very short and stiff. I paint with short strokes in different directions to create the effect of stiff, tousled hairs.

Well, the final step is the background. With several shades of green, I create the natural environment for the animal Yes, with the first drawing of the challenge, I think I did it!

With Love...

Participating in such art challenges should be fun my friend. I didn't know anything about wallaby, it is very look like to kangaroos. You beautifully draw it with colored pencils. Very good with short strokes you create its hairs. And in the background with several shades of green, you create the natural environment very nice. Good luck with the first drawing of the challenge...
