"Stone Guardian" Watercolor of a sea turtle made out of stones. The palette for the painting is in the blues with accents of black, white, green, burnt sienna and purple. The turtle is swimming over the top of rocks that look the same as the rocks that the turtle is made out of. There is a downed tree branch in the water in the upper left corner. Shadows indicate that the light is coming from the upper left. Salt was added to the first layer of paint, combined with the paint's natural granulation, give the painting a lot of texture. I love granulating paints!! Wiggly stripes of white accent each rock.

Finished my latest Stone Guardian. Do you think it's good enough to be donated to a Hawaiian art gallery, where the sale would benefit children's art education? Major imposter's syndrome going on here!
