On Saturday the NYC Urban Sketchers virtually visited the Galapagos Islands. Our guide was one of our members, Alan Wernike who has actually visited the area. He did a wonderful introduction to the animals of the area in the morning and then a great introduction to the land forms in the afternoon. Because of the isolation of the islands and how they are protected the creatures have little or no fear of humans.
I decided to focus on some of the creatures that inhabit the Galapagos and do an entire page of small sketches. Here is how I composed the page.
Here are larger versions of each of the small sketches.
