He has a mold of different animal skeleton heads as reference. Cool.
Here there are my study drawings with notes about the seventh lesson.

I really love her style.
Here I tried to follow her.

Patrizia and Paola gave me some new colors and a couple of natural brushes: it's definitely better to work with good materials. Thanks a lot!!!

05 Animal Drawing Tiger Locomotion

Lesson by Aaron Blaise
https://creatureartteacher.com

This lesson is about the walk and the run of tigers.

The walk:
there are 3 feet on the ground, and the back feet are always replacing the front feet. That's because this is the most stable set up to stand up for a four legged animal.

The run:
1 or 2 or none feet on the ground, because the faster you go, the less you wanna touch the ground.
The head drives the energy through the body (like a wave). As the head comes forward, then the arms follow, the energy goes through the body into the back legs, and rides off through the tail.
We are going from STRETCH to COMPRESSION

Watercolor 03

I'm trying to push the color further. It is study, so I should not be afraid to ruin the picture. I found a link of an illustrator for children who works with watercolor (old fashioned) and she says to do not use too much water. Next time I'll try to do something following her style (posting here her link of course).

Watercolor 02

During the first days of the year I went with Willy, Anna and Ian to the "Technisches museum Wien" where there's the Lohner-Porsche.
It's so elegant that I decided to do this little opera, adding a big wheel that was in Keplerplatz for the children amusement (the beginning of December 2015). 
The two objects seemed to me to fit well together, so I decided to do a composition with both.

Here the link to the Lohner-Porsche of the museum:
