I posted the pencil drawing for this yesterday. I started painting a little on it during my lunch period, and managed to get in ten minutes here and there throughout the afternoon. Altogether I worked for about two hours on this little gator. He turned out to be quite a colorful critter! Maybe he has a little Mardi Gras in him. One of my friends dubbed him "Monsieur Gator" and that seems like a perfect title to me.
While I painted I took several pictures on my phone of my progress. Here's a little montage of the different stages of "Monsieur Gator." I started with a fairly detailed drawing, then worked from the darks to the lights. Hope you enjoy my little excursion to the swamp.
