I haven't been all too productive lately (hopefully this will change, very soon) so I figured I'd post some of what I've been working on in Watercolor class.
I have a great teacher, and there's only four people in the class. It totally rocks.
The assignment here was to play around with altered washes, such as salt, crayon resist, wet-on-wet, water droplets, saran wrap, etc.
I wanted to do something based on one of my favorite childhood novels, "Dragon of the Lost Sea" by Laurence Yep. It's about a shapeshifting dragon princess who befriends a young boy as she seeks revenge for her magically stolen home-ocean.
This is a scene where they're actually on the stolen ocean-- all the water was taken away, leaving a near-endless salt desert.
Not the prettiest thing I've ever done, but I learned a lot.
Sorry about the crappy photo quality. XP Cell phones.

Crud!
Thanks so much!
NOOOOOOOOOO!
Luckily it's not mainstream. It has too many possibilities, though.
They actually are an amazing pair. She's stubborn as heck, and very proud-- she's a "dragon" in philosophy, and Thorn (the boy) is introducing more human concepts of mutual respect and empathy and whatnot. They're really well written and a delight to read.
