Steve Irwin

June 12, 2022February 2, 2021 by Chris Beaven

Steve Irwin, also known as the “Crocodile Hunter” inspired millions to love and care for all animals on earth through his exuberant and boisterous nature. Through his TV show and movies he has done more for endangered animals than almost anyone else.

I wanted to honor Steve Irwin’s memory and his greater than life character with a drawing in charcoal done ins style close to comic books. He is an environmental hero after all, so I thought it fitting.

I’m working further away from the center of interest in this drawing so the modeling has changed.
