Gator almost Done!

Working on the gator today --- along with rain, lightening, and thunder.

These rainy wet days make for perfect watercoloring weather...

It has taken a different direction than I thought... but I am beginning to really like it.

It's darker and more for-boding than I originally intended.

Perfect swamp gator! They have a creepy ominous quality when you see them in the swamp.

Fabulous work.
It certainly portrays how
I would feel if faced with a big
alligator like this. I can feel what
the big guy is thinking!
