Finished GATOR

I finished the gator painting yesterday...and even flattened out the crease a bit.

There will be more flattening- at the framers -- so that it's perfectly smooth.

I like it now. I worked on the head and made it more beliveable.

The painting is TOTALLY different than I first planned... but that's how it works some time.

    You are one cool master of watercolor!
    What a gator. Wow, I'm speechless which
    is a good thing.

    Inspiring to look at and admire.

    He's a beauty, Carol. What a wonderful painting ... it's almost abstract. [to my uneducated eye]

    Thank you Jo... I love the gator too. The colors just sort of picked themselves... I wanted him a bit more natural and blending with the environment. Happy painting!
