Sketch, from a recent NEAQ penguin-watching expedition... Luckily, the aquarium has a neat little penguin skeleton nearby the live animal exhibits, so when one attempts to ponder the underlying anatomy of such funny birds, she needn't look too far. Unfortunately, the angle I was drawing at lent a decidedly sinister perspective to the skeleton's posture - a decided conrast to the waddling, comedic character of a penguin in the flesh... (gotta love sketchbook surprises).
