Maybe just maybe I will finish it up this weekend. It’s not like there’s any hurry but I seem to like to set myself some form of deadline. All that’s left is the foal and the tweaking (of which shall be extensive.)

Moving right along. I still need to finish the belly, ears and mane.
I’m hoping to finish this up this weekend and am already plotting my next piece. I know right? Apparently all my painting juju is flowing freely now.
Getting Comfortable With Blue (zebra painting in progress)
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged technique, watercolor pencils, WIP on February 5, 2013| 2 Comments »
So here’s my second zebra. It appears I am totally embracing blue. Now considering blue is like most people’s favorite color it really should be something that I incorporate into more of my art. But I’ve never really liked working in blue. I can really think of but a couple of exceptions where blue played a dominant role in any creation of mine.
Purple oh yes. I love purple. And in truth my favorite color is somewhere in between blue and purple … periwinkle.
At any rate, here I am.
For those of you not familiar with my process the background color is covered in a film so the edges won”t get refined or tweaked until the very end when I remove the film. That’s one of the reasons the zebra’s manes look just a little off.
Looking for name ideas ….
The working title is Wild Ones but I’m not quite sure that’s how I want to go. Anyone have any suggestions? I realize the piece isn’t finished yet but I thought I’d ask the question anyway.
