Bush Baby - Pen Drawing

20230510_111516.jpg

Hi all, greetings.

From my animal drawing series, I present to you my new art work of a wildlife creature known as Bush Baby. It is also called Galagos.

I remember when I was young during my primary school days, students were scared of going to some certain places especially areas filled with bushes because of stories they heard regarding bush baby.

Well, we never thought it was this way though. We used to think bushbaby was a ghost or a dwarf and old woman-like creature that takes away some kids or scare them. Even those who lived in the hostel were scared of coming out at night to avoid encountering this bush baby.

The story kept passing on from one set to another even when we graduated and left. It was really a crazy believe cause when we remember such a thing now, we just laughed at ourselves.
Wish we knew better them - that they were mere stories and tells that never happened in reality.

Here, I drew a bush Baby sitting on a tree and staring at something that caught its attention. It has big round eyes like that of a cat.

The drawing was done with a blue ballpoint pen on a cardboard paper. You can see my step below:

You are not left out. Heard bush babies had human face and physique and their cries sounded like that of humans. At some point in my secondary school, we heard a cry that sounded as such. Nobody knows if it was real or not. Now I know the name they go by... Galagos

Great one here

Nice to know such story got to your school too. And yeah, they also said they cry like humans. Throughout my stay, I didn't experience such though we believed then and were cautious of our movements.

Nobody knows if it was real or not.

I personally believe they aren't real and there has not been any evidence to back it up.

They just used those stories to put fear on us and as naive as we were, we believed.
