Babirusa Skull Study

Ink painting of a Babirusa skull. A study of animal anatomy, composition, and contrast inspired by Renaissance drawings, demonstration of a time where art and science were seen as one.

This piece is part of a 30 paintings study I did in 2018 to improve my anatomy drawings and to research composition.

Original done with fountain pen and Sumi ink on Arches paper, scanned & cleaned with Photoshop (7200 x 10800 px, 300 ppi).
