Drawing Penguins in Antarctica

Went to Antarctica over the holiday. Couldn’t pass up the chance to draw penguins live…even if it was on top of a mountain with 50mph winds. Second one was on a calmer beach with hundreds of them. Not my best work, but incredibly fun. Check out the more detailed penguin illustration I later did from these references here
