Watercolor Sketching

Last week I had the fortune of helping start design on a new project, and I was using watercolor to create silhouettes. At the end of the day, I had the urge to sketch some animals, just for fun. These are just a couple of them. They were quick, but it really felt great to go at something with no agenda, no reserve, no client, no deadline... just sketching for an hour.

Aaah, the proportions on the fox rock. Its eyes(lack thereof?) are fun and wise looking and shtuff.

I like the abstract quality of the first sketch. Looks like a bat but I could be wrong.

Thanks!

Brian- yes, it is most definitely a bat. (head, chest, and shoulders) They have weird shapes, but once you know them, you "KNOW" them. :)

I'm glad you saw it.
