I have two commissions in the wings but I suddenly realised both needed larger paper/canvas than I have so I had to order some. While waiting for it to be delivered, I painted this - bear 151, Walker. I used a snapshot I took on the Explore.org webcam a while back as reference and painted with some Japanese watercolours that I got for Christmas. They are a bit different from our regular watercolours, much softer and very re-wettable once on the paper. I liked the soft effect I was able to get on the bear's fur - not intentional, just the way the paint dried!
This will be for sale in my Etsy shop shortly.
