Donkey Dreams

12x9 watercolor that was drawn with Pigma Micron 01 pen first on Canson 140 lb cold press paper.  I worked on it this weekend for our Watermedia forum challenge on WetCanvas! Photo courtesy of host Kara.  The background was eliminated and I put a very hot southwestern siesta type feel.  The donkey is dozing in the afternoon sun.

Management Donkeys

15x22 watercolor on140 lb cold press Saunders paper painted wet in wet.  When I first painted "Management" everyone who has ever been in the workplace loved its title.  These three donkeys were grazing not far from my mother's farm in west Texas and they came over to meet me at the fence.  Background buildings were imaginary as I wanted to depict a very hot southwestern day.  This one sold right away then I painted it again several years after and that one sold at its first show.  Who knows, I might do them again as I have saved the drawing on tracing paper.
