Here are a few more of the creatures for the ATC exchange I'm doing. These have arrived at their new home. In case you can't identify them they are an urchin, a quawk, a hippo, and an egret. All are 2.5 x 3.5 in and done in ink and watercolors.
Now that you are back at the beach, don't neglect doing some animals. I so love your animals. Every time I think of you at the beach, I think about you carrying all this stuff with you from the car. And I worry how you protect it when you have to make a pit stop.
Thanks, Jeanne. It has been fun doing the animals for a change. Other than at the farm I didn't do too many of them before. My art stuff fits nicely in my beach bag.
Oh I love the hippo!!!! You really do a beautiful job on animals. I have been visiting the zoo and wild animal park often, lots of photos, few sketches, but animals are so hard to draw!!!!
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

These are lovely, Joan. I particularly love the last one of the white bird.
