  14. Your little Red Hen is wonderful Karen. I know it's a watercolor Wednesday piece... but it works perfectly for Illustration Friday's "ahead" theme as well. Hey thanks for posting the first and second part of the dalmation/girl tutorial. Great stuff!

    Anyway, the texture on the chook really lifts this work up several notches. Yes you should so more of these.
