Illustration Friday - Gravity

A quick one this week... I wanted to try out some new watercolors.

I sketched a bunch of these weekend, then covered the sketches with gesso. Once they're dry, I go back over with watercolor pencil and add just a bit of water to make some of the colors pop a bit.

* Red Clogs Studio News - Alissa Imre Geis's blog

*"The Lobbyist" - The first time I heard this one I was boggled 'till I went back in and realized it was fiction. It's a fun listen regardless.
