Match: Illustration Friday: Buck Match


Ok, I know this picture is not as detailed as some of my other work, but I did this at the last minute. I could not think of an idea that I wanted to do for sure until the last minute, and I had family visiting from out of town this week, so I did not have much time to spend on the project. I did this painting, another watercolor, in one hour, which is highly unusual for me, as I like to take my time and get the shading and details right. But, I ran out of time to do that, so I will have to submit this as is. I can get back to the details later on I guess. As late as I am submitting this, I'm not even sure if anyone will see it, but at least I can say I tried.

Play : Illustration Friday : Little League


My second watercolor painting, and I think maybe this one turned out a little better than the first. I decided to pay a tribute to all the Little League players around the world, now that the summer and the season is winding down. I used ink and watercolor. I thought maybe the ink would help the players stand out against the backround. I think maybe it's not proper or traditional procedure to use ink with the watercolor, but then again, I never was one to follow the rules :)
