Milky Way

11x8.5 watercolor on Italia 140 lb cold press paper, drawn and painted today.  This is bad boy Chester who cannot resist milk, ice cream, or any dairy products so we cannot leave any unattended.  I did this work wet into wet using alizarin crimson and thalo green mix for his black coat, and quinacridones gold and burnt orange for the table and wall.  Other colors are permanent rose, peachy keen, and ultramarine blue.
