Field Mouse on Drafting Film.
A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.
Hey everyone! Here is part one of the Field Mouse on Drafting Film. There are many parts to this tutorial so I will be drip feeding them over the course of the next couple of months as they take a ridiculous amount of time to upload to YouTube with my extremely slow internet.
The reference photograph I used for this tutorial was purchased from Wildlife Reference Photos for Artist's. I am allowed to do a tutorial with it for you but I am not allowed to distribute the photograph so my drawing will be the reference photo for this project. You may certainly purchase the image yourself if you want it, it is a very reasonable price of £3.60 or $5.00, I will link the image below.
Also, if you chose to share your work on social media you would need to purchase the reference image and tag Wildlife Reference Photos for Artist's in your posts.
I know this isn't ideal and next time we do an animal I will make sure it is either my own reference photograph or it will be from Pixabay or Unsplash.
I hope you enjoy this one :)
