Gator!


Here is the newest watercolor... straight from my palette to your door!

I am finally painting the GATOR from the Everglades!

I have been wanting to paint a gator since last spring.

I want to show the moumentality of the reptile.

So large, handsome, and fierce!

This watercolor captures some of the essence I have been searching for....

Let's hope I continue the momentum with the Everglades work now ....

    He's got personality already. And the size will really have impact.
