This is a 1 hour drawing of a taxidermied yak, drawn in the Leeds city museum, using a 6B graphite stick. The focus of this drawing was the head of this animal as it has very interesting features such as its horns. The composition is good especially in the head as this animal is very big with a massive skull, so making sure the neck is the right thickness is also good composition as the sternocephalic, brachiocephalic and omotransverse muscles would have to be big in order for this animal to carry the weight of its head and horns.
This drawing isn't perfect, but this drawing shows good composition throughout the drawing and it allows the eyes of the viewer to wander around the drawing from the head onto the hump on the back and along its back to the feet then around back to the head. Also from the direction of the drawn lines it shows that the drawing isn't a flat drawing making it look 3D, and adding depth to the drawing.
