NEWA exhibition 2010

These are a few pieces that were part of last years exhibition. I have noticed that they are all very traditional and extermely skilled art pieces and they are all usually of typical animals such as the big 5.
I want to try and do something a bit different, still using my traditional drawing aproach as that is what I like to do best and would like to improve upon, however I want to use an animal subject that is different and use a mixed media aproach. I want to create something that will catch eyes rather than go through with the rest.
