Crocodile Smile

15x22 watercolor on Lanaquarelle 140 lb hot press paper, sketched first with tip of India ink applicator, then alternate spritzing with water and painting was done yesterday.  Splatters were applied with a loaded brush and ink as well onto dry paper.  With the pattern diamond areas I put in various shades of colors.  I featured this evil-grin fellow in the Animal & Wildlife forum monthly challenge on WetCanvas.
