Using black ink pens and colored pencils, American artist and illustrator Tim Jeffs strives to capture his subjects’ essence in his portraits. He begins each drawing with extensive research into a given animal’s conservation status, habitats, habits, and physical appearance. He then closely studies its skin or fur but lets artistic license dictate the patterns, textures, and colors he applies. Let loose your own artistic license while you color these intricately detailed animals from the hand of Tim Jeffs.
