Print Sketch Critique

1. Why is texture so important to have in your sketches?

It shows the different values and textures and everything on the sketch and it shows you can make a drawing look extremely realistic.

2. Why is it neccessary for you to have several references of each animal and each background? Explain.

When it comes to drawing animals, I think it helps to have references to show how the animal looks and its proportions and everything and be as accurate as possible. The background I think had a lot to do with focal point,  at least for me, the rocks were a bit difficult at first to figure out how to draw most realistically. 

3. When you look at your sketches are you able to see which sketch is the strongest and will make the best print? How do you know this? 

I feel this combination of background and animal doesn't really convey a lot of good texture in the photo but this was my most complete sketch I had at that moment the photo was taken. (◕‿◕✿)
