Majestic_1_ Watercolor

Watercolor on Langton 140 lb paper
10"x14"
I felt like painting loose today.. watercolors came to my aid!Its a beautiful day outside, and I loved painting this majestic animal in spontaneous style.In fact I intend to paint a small series on elephants in the same style- hence the name and number!

  3. Wow, you nailed it, Dean.'Controlled looseness' is very appropriate term here as I love to go loose but still retain some control over my brush!Thank you.
