Friday Art - Southern Tamandua


 Welcome to Friday Art!  This is a southern tamandua which I saw on my laptop screensaver the other day.  It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in watercolour pencil.  It hails from South America and is a species of anteater.

Linking to Nicole's Friday Face Off and to Gillena's Art For Fun Friday.

Looks nice, first I thought it would be a marten...in german this tamandua is called Ameisenbär - literaly translated ant bear.
Have a good time and all the best
