IF ... Sneaky

©2010 Mardi Speth All Rights Reserved • watercolor & ink

Short of an original idea, I'm playing the cuteness card in this
stealth escapade. There's no mark of treachery or deceit, just a hungry mouse. Shifting perspectives, this composition had my focus on ellipse progressions and shading. Still easier in theory
than with a paint brush.

  1. Adorable, and tasty! Maybe he'll ferment it and make some berry wine?

  2. Nice.
    Why is this not a concept? Seems like a concept to me. Almost has a Quentin Blake feel; definitely worth pursuing the brush medium. And yes, due to the cropping, your ellipse progression is progressing elliptically.
