Hey friends,
This is a watercolor sketch and done in a style that I really love painting in. So many appreciate art only if it looks like a photo. Well I applaud having the technique skill to do that and having been there and got the tee shirt, I moved through time to a more loose and impressionistic style.
Please ask any question on process or whatever. Your comments are welcomed.
Saw this view and thought what a nice painting that will make someday. So, I proceeded to do my watercolor sketch for some future motivation to turn this into a full sheet. This is appox 10 x12 on 140lb CP archival paper. Like all sketches not everything turned out how I wanted but that is why we do preliminaries.....right. Try, try and try again. The healing is in the process not the end result. Enjoy.

This piece is unframed and unmatted and shipping included in costs and will be shipped to anywhere in the USA in a sturdy packaging construct. Outside of USA arrangements for shipping need to be made. It retails for $175. All original art unless otherwise stated. Enjoy .......... Thank You

This is the cousin to the GIANT PANDA, big and black and white. The Red Panda is always confused with the Fox or Raccoon family but it's not either. He travels the same bamboo forest as his cousin. The Himalayas and two provinces in China is where you will find him.
This is a Watercolor and ink sketch on 140 lb cold press archival grade arches paper. I started drawing with permanent artist ink immediately and set some parameters for the animal to fit on the page. Started throwing in some color washes and came back to finish with ink and some white splatter to represent snow.

The image size is approximately 6 X 10". It comes to you unframed and unmatted to hold down costs for both of us. Shipping is included anywhere within the USA boundaries. Outside of the USA please email me for arrangements. Shipped in a strong construct package for safety.
