Ibis Shore

9x12 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done yesterday as part of the current Weekend Drawing Event on WetCanvas! as hosted by Tanya.  This flock of ibis shore birds and a few gulls was sketched on paper I'd used under smaller works to catch drips, hence the multi-marked surface.  I thought it was perfect for the overcast day, water, shore, shells and debris.  A boat can be seen in the distance closer to opposite shore.  As a 2 hour timed event, I completed this in one hour.
