Peacock in Watercolor

 

This "Peacock," was painted for a challenge in Paul Clark's watercolor group. I used a tutorial by Sarah Cray for Let's Make Art.

After printing the lesson's traceable image, I put it on my light box and traced the image using a watercolor pencil, onto Canson watercolor paper (140 lb. cold press).

I painted the "Peacock," using Winsor Newton Cotman watercolor tubes. 

If you are in Florida and visiting St. Augustine, stop at the Fountain of Youth. You will see flocks of these lovely birds on the grass and in the trees. 

 My husband Sandy Brooke always takes pictures of the peacocks when we are near the Fountain of Youth.
