My attempt at a monochrome watercolor, based on the 1899 photo by Felix Thiollier, "The Horse Trainer". I used Daniel Smith Hematite Genuine and white gouache. I fell in love with the photo, so just wanted to give it a try.

Just reposting this which I think is the most gorgeous thing I have seen in my career - a critically endangered orange-bellied parrot feeding on a carpet of daisies after an ecological burn. This was the first time they’d had the chance to feed naturally in 15y and was wonderful to witness

I'm starting to really really love isolated vocals of famous songs. Because yes, I know Stevie Wonder and Freddie Mercury can sing.
But man, when the mic is on and the instruments are gone, you can really experience how perfect and damn near spiritual their voices are.
