Tusk Time elephant

6x6 watercolor over ink line sketch with Micron 01 pen, drawn and painted yesterday on Masters 70 lb paper.  I like how this paper accepts color splotches; it does not blend as traditional paper so never know what I'm going to get as an end result, such as with this zoo elephant.
