How to Watercolor x Dashing Dachshunds! | Children's Illustration

Just a p'tit watercoloring and chat through a delightful dachshund illustration I recently did for a 2017 calendar. I hope you enjoy! *Note: a limited run of giclée prints of this piece are available on Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/51219756... *** materials Arches cold-press watercolor block, 140lb/300g Yasutomo Black Ink Winsor & Newton watercolors White Gelly Roll pen Micron pen Prismacolor pencils Silver Black Velvet brushes (jumbo round) Polar Flo brush no. 6 *** music "Canon in D Major" by Johann Pachelbel covered by Kevin MacLeod *** artist notes My favorite bit of this painting are the "mini dramas" going on between the various dachshunds at the soirée. I always love pouring into an illustration and having tiny hidden details unveiled the more I looked. This piece has a lot of those delightful easter eggs. *** more stuff by moi instagram /   / orwellsadventures   twitter/   / wasabipear   dot com / http://www.jessengle.com
