Making a Squirrel using Aquarelle Watercolors

Hello everyone, happy Sunday to all and hopefully you are enjoying this day and are able to take it easy. I always try to enjoy this day, it feels like the last day to resource myself before starting to work again tomorrow ( which makes it Monday). A lot of snow melted since we had rain recently (It is surprising as we were covered with snow just last week, but I am not complaining), so I took a little time to go clean up my balcony since it was not perfectly clean and I did not want to get caught again with the next snow.

Since I like to feed birds, Does squirrels usually come in packs and try to ravage whatever they can. No matter what I do, they find a way to reach it. After numerous try, I started to really enjoy how clever it can beand cute too. I always stack a bunchof nuts on a daily basis just for them. Those snores are still in the bird feeder, But it takes them a whileand have to do all sorts of acrobaties to reach it. Well they take the time to do that, believe the regular bird feeders with the seeds that are made for the birds so everybody is happy,

Living in Canada, we have many of them and they are rather fat at this time of year, which I think is great ( it gives them that extra cuteness), I would like to think that the ones that are coming to my places are extra fat (but it is hard to say). They are not really nervous around me anymore so when I was cleaning the balcony, they came right up to me, probaly curious, wondering if maybe I would give them some food right away... some easy food ( which I did not) . Still, I was enjoying them starring at me and this is what inspired me for today's drawing.

Since I bought new watercolors on Friday, and seem to did quite well on my last watercolor using them, i wanted to use them again :-), to continue I'm packing the little colors and I haven't used up yet. There are still a few doors not open, but I'll get to them sooner rather than later. I also decided to take a picture of the tools that I used to do it, it changes the presentation of the post, i said quite a few times so when I try it.

Here are some progress pics :

and finally, to experment a little, I did some outlines using a fine pen

I hope you guys like it. Thanks for the view
