"but mum...." by Laura Watson

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 3 out of 32 by Laura Watson. ←Previous - Next→


	the big creature is telling the little creature off, that's all I know! This just popped out of my paintbrush after a trip to Chester Zoo, so it's loosely inspired by all the animals there, especially the bats, giraffes and elephants! Another fun picture to paint in gouache, I just love bright colours.

1 Nov 2006	Chris <teine_sionnic@hot...com&	Loading... It's amazing what a trip to the zoo can inspire! Congratulations on the Mod's Choice and using gouache--that's a hard medium to work with, as are any paints.
1 Nov 2006	Melanie 'Coffee Goddess' Wood	Loading... I cannot believe this has not gotten a zillion comments! Three?! Only three so far?! Well, four if you include mine...but come on! Where are your eyes people? Look at this! It's bloody brilliant! You did excellent work on this Laura, truly. In fact I'm a little jealous. It's such a shame that, for a Mod's Choice, this hasn't received more praise. Laura Watson replies: "Thankyou for such nice comments. I was very surprised I received a mod's choice and was very pleased since I really enjoyed painting this, it's great to receive any nice comments-i think my work is a bit too unusual for some people, so thanks for your praise!"
