Buffalo Skull

A buffalo skull done in Strathmore Visual Journal for mixed media 5.5x8 finished this afternoon. Beginning with very wet watercolors I laid in red and black first yesterday. On dry paper today sketched with Artist's Loft watercolor colored pencils then added water to blend those. A few regular colored pencils were added for accents, making this a partial vignette, not adding all the blanket patterns.  Photo courtesy Hud/WetCanvas.  The skull was a gift to Hud in Montana from his Nam buddy, a Lakota Sioux.
