Whenever I am having trouble with inspiration, I can just about always be saved by finding a photo of a flamingo to paint. One of my very first watercolors was a flamingo for my mom. She loved it, and I have been painting new ones for her collection ever since.
After feeling so horrible yesterday, I knew today a flamingo was going to have to be my project. So I scoured Google and pieced together a scene from a couple of my favorite photos. The painting below is on 6x8 cold press watercolor paper.
I also got some ideas for a few more projects, so don't be surprised if flamingos pop up again.
And again. :)
