pomegranate exploration

i'm going to attempt 1/10 of my object drawing exploration project today.. i think i'm going to choose to draw a pomegranate. just thinking about gathering and using different mediums make me giddy. i'm not sure how far i'll get with this attempt today or this weekend, but right now i just want to get ingres paper and chalk pastel pencils. so i found out that ingres paper is environmental-friendly and that makes me very satisfied. however, i have long come to a conclusion that it's just plain dfficult to be vegan-friendly with every single art supply i pick up or am required to use. personally, i am just trying my best everyday to be as healthy and ethical in every way that i can. but nothing's perfect and this world could not possibly be comprised of 100% of anything. there are specks and flaws in every single thing, whether we agree or not. that's just my personal thought though. so yeah, i'm going to use my watercolor paper or pastels even if there may be chances that they're not entirely vegan. i can only avoid so much, ya know.
