Description
It's been refreshing to draw things outside of wolves and cats.
squilla is Latin for shrimp
and I used Chinese Watercolors to make this, it was much more spontaneous than anything else I've used and it will definitely take mastery to draw anything remotely good in this media. There isn't any sketching involved, and the brushes are a lot more recptive to pressure and stroke time.
but I think practice will pay off, as in anything else

Very nice. I can't paint with water colors to save my life. This could make a nice decorative framed print, like for a culinary or beach themed room.

you're right, that would be a cool idea! I outta keep working with these watercolors, and maybe I could get them good enough that I could sell them
