Extinct Animals



So I guess for my first project I did a lot of research on recently extinct animals, most of which have gone extinct within the past one hundred years. I was really interested in the fact that so many animals can just cease to exist. When I was really little, I remember watching this children's show about the Tasmanian Tiger and how the species was believed to be extinct, but there were still people trying to find them. All I remember was hoping so much that they could find more and that it wasn't extinct. That was my inspiration for this project. I made a three piece series that had very faint abstractions of these animals layered on top of one another across the paper.
