Day 12: Red Squirrel

 

Red Squirrel painting by A Splash of Watercolour

I went back to my smaller sized painting today and it went much more quickly.

Overall I'm very happy with this little guy.

I like how the final details turned out. At first I thought the lines were way too dark and stark but when I looked at it again much later I realized they're just fine!

I struggled with the fuzzy fur along the edges of the body because my paint seems to dry very quickly. I didn't have enough time to get in there and pull out the paint with my skinnier brush.

My one wish is that I added some of the light Yellow Ochre to the tail, because it seems a bit boring.
