Gator-- Watercolor from the Everglades Series

New watercolor of a gator for my Everglades Series.

This watercolor has a few new techniques I've been trying out... in preparation for larger paintings.

I am plowing ahead and trying to tackle this project and have a showing of the series.


There are parts of this painting I really like.

Your gator is suitably awesome-looking, and ... WOW ... you really handles blooms well!

Great painting--I love the big white shapes, and the variety of colors, and use of positive/negative on the gator. Cool composition too!

Thank you both!!!! The GATOR is part of the EVERGLADES ongoing series. I hope to flesh out the show real soon. Waiting for warmer weather -- so that my watercolor cooperates better! Thank you for your words.
