Day 11

"yellow-ish"
6" x 6"
watercolor

This was done from the same reference photo of a yellow lab as yesterday's painting.  I tried to rework the composition and the drawing.  I'm still not loving either 100% and I sort of like yesterday's color a little better, but...I'm learning!  

Here is a collage of my process on this one, and as I look at it I kind of wish I quit while I was ahead.  I like the colors coming through in step 3 better than the final and it reminds me to slow down and leave things alone.  Don't overwork!  This reminds me of an exercise that I need to try, painting with limited strokes, like 20.
