Little Surfer Girl...

Craig Elliott — Wed, 31 Oct 2012 00:02:03 +0000

Here is a 7 x 10 inch watercolor I did for my Publisher John Fleskes, on my last visit to his place. I started in terra cotta pencil and finshed off in watercolors. John was kind enough to scan the piece when I had finished the drawing, so you can see both stages. There will also be a time lapse film of this some time soon, as the whole 3 hour process was filmed as I worked.
