We are working in watercolors in my Illustration class. For a practice watercolor we had to do something from a photo and/or a still life. I chose this cute little giraffe (photo found on DA, it is not mine) to practice my watercolor talents on.
Snazzy! Are you working on paper? Sounds like a stupid question, but there are watercolor boards, which are absolutely to die for when it comes to working with gouache or watercolor. It looks like you have a pretty good handle on a medium that tends to have a pretty big learning curve!
Beautiful. I love the shading and textures and crisp edges. This is magnificent. Not a subject I usually get into much, but it's the way you rendered it.
