MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY BOOK



Last winter I did a New York location drawing project. I chose the Museum of Natural History so I could draw inside. I went to the museum every day for two weeks and drew for 20-30 minutes and then compiled the drawings into a book. The first half of the book is devoted to stuffed mammals, and the second half of the book chronicles different dinosaur skeletons. I wanted the end product to be like a sketchbook, but a little more archival so I used Moab Natural paper.
