Illustration Friday - Confined


I originally did this pastel from a photo I took at Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo, I eliminated the cage bars for my pastel. For this topic I put them in using Gimp. I have mixed feelings about zoos, on one hand it's great to see th animals close up, on the other hand they are often confined to rather small areas
