“The Coral Crew” Transparent Watercolor and Time-lapse Video

After a large, complicated, time-consuming botanical painting, I wanted something, small, fast and simple to work on. I sorted through a stack of doodles and composited a few into this coral reef scene. After the rigid realism of the last watercolor, it was … Continued
