Skillet Chef

15x11 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper drawn yesterday then finished today.  Inspired by a little figurine chef, I quickly sketched his profile in pencil then put in colors mixing black (quinacridone burnt orange + ultramarine blue).  His red scarf is Grumbacher True Red, alizarin, transparent pyrrol orange and Halloween orange.  This comical guy is another in my chef series spanning many years; each one is more fun than the last.
