cool drawing. . . sleeping on a cliff edge!?

I feel like I'm sleeping on the edge of a cliff regularly, dogs that push you close to the edge of the bed! Hmmm...I thought everyone dreamed in color, my dreams are vividly bright.

Interesting find on the beach. Like how you tried it several different ways.

[RainySea]

wow, that is cool. Didn't know there were elk in CA. Maybe just not down south here.

Thank you, Debby, Vivien, Rainy, Joan, for your comments.

Had been slow going recently with a bad back. But I'm hosting a Fantasy/Sci-Fi SEP Challenge - Create a scene to motivate myself to at least sketch or draw. Hope visitors of this thread would look at the 23 photos I posted in any case some of my kids and get inspiration too and join in.

This one is Daniel Smith watercolor on Stillman & Birn 180 lb heavyweight Delta spiral 9x12 inch.

This one is based on the reference from September 2012 Watermedia Challenge - Gardens of the world.


Changed it a bit so it's not really a garden now.
