"North Carolina Zoo" Series
2007, one of my "giving back"
charitable projects was to donate a series of 10 original 8 X 10
graphite pencil drawings to the North Carolina Zoo for their yearly fundraiser.
Each one of these beautiful animals is, or was, fortunate enough to call
the NC Zoo it's home. The photographic models for these drawings were
provided by Valerie Abbott who is a volunteer at the NC Zoo and has been
kind enough to let me use a lot of her photos for my artistic endeavors.
This is the complete set
of all 10 drawings.
