Sea Turtle Drawing
THIS IS THOMAS,
MY NEWEST SEA TURTLE.
This is graphite pencil on heavy paper. He is in the middle of an ocean of paper, size 18×24″. It is the largest drawing I have done of anything really. Thomas is a preliminary drawing that I want to lightly trace onto watercolor paper so I can make a painting of him. I will not trace every little detail as that would take way too long, just the outline. I don’t want to make the watercolor painting quite as detailed. At some point I will ad a background of water, etc., to this drawing, but I don’t have the time today!
Have a wonderful day, and give someone you love a huge hug! ๐

Thanks, Jill. ๐ Yes, I just had to name him. I have a few stuffed sea turtles, and actually, one of them is named Thomas also. That is my husband’s middle name, and he gave them to me. ๐
My shoulder is feeling just fine, thanks for mentioning it! ๐
