Overgrown Shack
8.25x9 ink using STA Lictin 0.3 pen on sketchbook paper done mid-January, another WetCanvas challenge. I've tried to show the forlorn and forgotten aspect of this rundown, abandoned structure that probably was someone's home in the past.

Old Homestead with Owl
12x9 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper painted today for the weekend drawing event on WetCanvas in which participants have 2 hours to choose then complete their art. I used a portion of an old rundown abandoned structure then tried to make a vignette by losing at least three edges. The owl was added to the roof as if he was surveying what tree or old window opening to use for a nest. For the darks I used neutral tint and ultramarine blue.
