Watercolor I - Midterm - (close-up)

I'll have a finished image later, but this is a close up of a bear I painted in for my midterm watercolor class.

This next photos is of the midterm about "mid" way through the project.  I added a lot more detail after this photo was taken, but it gives an idea of the composition.  We had to focus on texture, and we always have to work on really large paper-using all of the paper.   When the last picture is posted, you'll be able to see the difference and better use of color, balance, lifting, texture etc.
