Kevin the Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle
HERE HE IS! Kevin seemed a fitting name. It doesn’t have any special meaning for me; it’s just a name I’ve always liked. This is my final drawing on tissue paper that I will now be transferring to my watercolor paper. Probably not today, though. I need to let my arm rest!
Have a wonderful day, and give someone you love a big hug! 🙂

Thank you, Elena! I was hoping his emotions would show through. I think he is seriously looking for food, but when he sees us up close, he realizes we are not it! 😉

Wow he looks like quite a character…..I feel a disapproving stare reaching me from here! I’m hoping to swim with some turtles next week, so I hope they don’t all look this grumpy!

No, he just thought you were food, so was a little disappointed! 😉
Where are you going to be able to swim with turtles?

Love the details – this is going to be beautiful when painted. I do like the drawing too though – something very quiet and graceful to your piece.

Thank you, Mary. I really appreciate your encouragement. 🙂
I am probably not going to be able to start painting it for a couple of days, though, since my right hip is bothering me for some reason.

Fantastic job, Patsy! He looks like a Kevin and he looks very curious. Nicely done!

Thank you, Jill. Yeah, I’m not sure where his name came from, although there’s a guy that my husband works with named Kevin who lives two doors down from us. I’ve always liked him. He’s a young war veteran, too.
I’m glad Kevin looks curious! I was afraid he might look kind of angry! 😉
