Painting "Elephant"



TEXT by POPPY SEED

We always learn that an animal or a person must have 2 eyes, 1 nose and 1 mouth,
and these face features must sit at the proper position
A while ago, I was reading an article and being challenged of this concept.
So I decided to draw something (don't know what) from a different view.

With water painting, I simply draw any shapes I want with red paint.
Leave it till it dries, then draw any patterns freely with blue paint,
and at last, with yellow paint. (you can use different colour too, but try to keep it to less than 3 colours)
Then look at the finished pattern, does it look like any animal?
If you don't have a clue, try to rotate the paper, or look into a corner of the painting, till you see some resemblance of an animal.
Then, use a black pen to trace out the outline of the animals.

Here is my imaginative animal.
