Elephant and Three Palm Trees


 I just had to paint a second elephant! This time, I didn't use a  black outline around the image. I shaded the elephant with water using two different watercolors colors and a third color for the details: wrinkles and eye.

The elephant and palm tree are from traceables found in the "Watercolor the Easy Way," by Sara Berreson. I tried to freehand draw the foliage in the front of the elephant.

I used Winsor and Newton Cotman watercolor tubes on Arches paper.
