Paulie the Pelican

12" x 16" Watercolor
This is another pelican tryout for my friend. I'm afraid that I just don't have it in me to do a commission. I'm not happy with the way this turned out, and I don't think I can do it justice for her. Maybe in a few years............
Meanwhile - maybe I'll do something fabulous tomorrow in Pat's class! Stay tuned!

Nancy, your pelican is charming - he has a certain "attitude!" The painting has a very decorative stylistic feeling.

Nancy, you are too hard on yourself, I think its a good representation of a pelican. Hey they're not the best looking birds after all. !!!

Barbara the pelican is looking good. I freeze when someone wants a comission and have done three to see if I can get at least one to look right. But it does get us out of our comfort zone.
