Drawing from Imagination

DP1 Lesson 28: Fantastical (Hybrid) Creatures

In this lesson, we continue drawing from imagination and rendering with color by creating fantastical (hybrid) creatures. We learn how to combine multiple photo references to create new, imagined, and hybrid forms while avoiding plagiarism. Artworks of the past that depict fantastical creatures inform our development of original creatures from our own imagination.
