Sunday Sketches - On Alert






Welcome to Sunday Sketches!  This piece is done in my art journal (8 1/2" x 11") in watercolour crayon.  The yellow I used was showing up too brightly in my scanned image so I am using a photo instead.  This is a leopard on alert, it's all in the eyes.

It is all in the eyes! I just cannot do animals. I might say 'yet', but seriously, at my age!!!

I like the variety of subjects you choose. Animals and people are very difficult for me to capture on paper.
