I want to create a hand-drawn hand-painted zoo for those that wish to participate. To begin with we will draw/paint elephants in a zoo. Other animals to follow. You can use watercolor, pens, pencils, colored pencils, acrylics and or oils.
You can have 1 elephant on each card or more than one it's up to you. Maybe have an adult and a baby? Whatever you would like to see in your zoo! Your animals need to be draw realistic and in a zoo or free range setting, after all this is the start of a fantastic new zoo!

~A 4th “hostie” artist trading card would be greatly appreciated but is not required
~Add on the back of each card: your real name, username, date, city/state or country, swap name

Welcome, welcome, welcome to my first two players CynthiaSillitoe and Elliejaybird. I hope you enjoy your trip to my zoo!
 
Kim, is it your intention to do further swaps on this theme featuring a different animal, therefore eventually gathering animals for our zoos? That would really be fun, and something to look forward to. Current commitments direct me to the Lurkers’ Enclosure for now.
 
What she said.
:rolleyes:
I had been thinking of a similar series of swaps, culminating with a side project for myself of a bestiary.
So this would be awesome for me. Less work, more fun!
 
Is this swap about realism, or are all styles welcome?
 
jezebelle and CiCiCreates, yes I am intending to carry on with other HD/HP animals to "make a zoo" I am near the Cleveland and Toledo zoos so I am kind of splitting those two zoos and going with how they have the animals lined up. That's how my order will be. I will add that to the swap so others know. Thanks you two!
 
Thanks so much, and the other question was about style. Realistic only, or is whimsical ok?
 
In my zoo all the animals are realistic and they need to be in a zoo setting. You don't have to put cage bars, for example Elephants are a plains/ grassland animal so the backgrounds should resemble a plains or grassland area. Focus more on the animal not the enclosure.
 
Welcome to the Zoo swap An.M.Sudyka and leydab! Glad you could come and play with us.
 
Welcome to the HD/HP Elephant swap LuAnnP, Shadow_guide and Evalia!!! I am so glad you three decided to visit my zoo!
