Baby Brown Eyes

Two young Bush Babies

This image of two young bush babies has been sketched in the medium of Pastel on a PastelMat paper whilst using a series of beautiful photographs courtesy of Dustin Van Helsdingen.

Below is a sequence of images showing how I sketched the above Bushbabies

I've lightly sketched in the two inquisitive little bushbabies peering over a branch

I started on their big eyes and then I've worked on the first bushbaby adding its large ears

I've now added the left ear of the right Bushbaby and begun work on it's little face

Here I'm softening the fur around the snout having also added the right ear

I've completed the second bushbaby's face and then filled in a green background

I've start to work on the tree branch that they're resting on

Here I'm starting to add the branch bark details.

I've darkened the background green a little and filled in the details of the bark
