The "peril of suggestion"
A bit of helpful feedback and research has directed me to two conclusions in watercolor: I need to "suggest" the subjects and backgrounds in this current project rather than traditionally illustrate them....and that the whole thing is fraught with peril. There will be strokes that I can direct, but others that will do some of the work on their own. On deadline.
I'll be talking to some Cub Scouts later this week, and I want to be able to confidently describe what it is that I do, but I'm not feeling very confident at this moment.
Here is a quick sketch of our neighbor's miniature greyhound. Later today I'll be trying out some more daring strokes in a sketch of an alligator-infested swamp. — lec
