Sweetie went to the Newport Aquarium this month with a young photographer who wanted to learn some good rules for photographing the exhibits. Sweetie got some great photos of the Giant Pacific Octopus (which is rarely out and so beautifully displayed). So I had to try to paint her!!
The second version (started yesterday), I wanted to try to get closer to that dark wine and purple color, but more to do to finish that one. These are both on 9 x 12 inch watercolor paper - the first on Arches rough 140# and the second on Fabriano cold press 140#.
