Hello watercolor friends!
It is our pleasure to introduce
The contest: For this competition we are taking something ordinary, and turn it into something crazy and extraordinary. This time we’re going to do animals! Give your cat some magnificent dragon wings or give your chihuahua a unicorn’s horn. Cross a duck with a turtle or paint a tiger with the most psychedelic colors. Be creative, pretend you’re a mad scientist and come up with interesting mixes.
It is your chance to practice feathers, furs, hides and scales. Don’t forget about proportions and cohesion, we still want your animal to look like it could function in the real world.
Starts: Monday, May 28th
Ends: Saturday, July 28th
