My new character is a stork as you can see. I didn’t had in my mind the thought to draw a stork but I saw a photo and it was there already. I laugh with photo and start drawing my stork.

Then, I decide to try painting with watercolors in my new winsor & newton sketchbook. I usually draw only with pencils in this sketchbook. It’s not perfect for washes but ok you can paint with less water in your colors.

I love him because I saw him in my mind  so clearly before I draw him but I didn’t find name for him until now, he’s just Mr Stork.

And here is the reference photo I based my character.

Photographer: Auntie P

It’s perfect, gorgeous photo from Berlin zoo. So perfect that I think I will work more with this character. Thanks Auntie P for this photo!
