Mane Event

22x30 watercolor done previously from an imaginary small horse with a flowing mane.  It is on Italia Acquerello 140 lb soft press paper and I worked wet on dry, but wet areas with large flat brush first before laying in paint.  I was trying to make this fellow a dappled grey, so just let colors run and spread of mixed palette neutral pigments.  The background was left the white of the paper.
