patio in watercolor


Half of this painting came from a shot I took at Magic Mountain (believe it or not). The other part(s) were from my backyard growing up. My mom had this enormous barrel flower pot that I always liked.

This one took me hours and hours. My daughter - a toddler at the time - even scribbled on it at one point, but I was able to fix it. I love Prisma pencils, but I'll never do another one this large with this medium (11x17"). I drew the face first, because that's the hardest part. If you mess up on that and have to start over, then you haven't wasted time on the rest.

When I was first married, we lived in a tiny apartment w/no tv. I was home one Saturday and started sketching these lions from a book I checked out at a library. The tiger was from last night - nearly 13yrs later.
