DoodlewashDecember2021: Reindeer. I know – a bit late to the prompt!
Did you know that caribou (aka reindeer) are the only deer species in which both male and female have antlers?
Another test of the Paul Rubens’ precipatated colors. This small postcard size doesn’t give the colors a chance to really granulate. The colors are a bit dark, and it’s harder to get the contrast needed for drama.
I think I know what to do now, though, when working at this smaller size.
