Monster #12 - 2/1/16



Happy Monday (or, uh, Wednesday)! For the month of February I am focusing on drawing with Prismacolors--one of my longtime favorite mediums that I have not explored in a long time. I also have decided to depict traditional monsters this month.
This first February monster is the famously known yeti. I decided a notorious snow monster was an appropriate subject as we are still in the thick of a bitter, cold winter here in Wisconsin.
Yeti are a Bigfoot-type monster or "abominable snowman" that are rumored  to wander the Himalayas of Tibet. The yeti that were of reported sightings are similar in appearance to Bigfoot: reddish-brown in color and standing upright. I decided to go with a more "snowy" looking version of this creature that is often depicted white in the media and popular culture.
Hopefully I'll get next week's monster done on time 😊 I underestimated how long these drawings take. Oh well, live and learn I suppose.
