CHALLENGES

So, I'm starting on my first piece of the dip net series. This one is going to be from the seagull perspective. They are such a crack up on the beach when you are fishing, fighting over fish heads, hopping around hoping to get fish eggs from someone who is cleaning fish.
I realized as I started designing that these are going to complicated and challenging pieces. I'm working on the side panels for this bag and while the seagulls went smoothly, the little fisherman was tricky, (small,small beads). Now the water is going to be even trickier, if I can bead it the way I have it drawn. Or I could sort of cop out and make it super simple. Tomorrow I have to make up my mind.  I really struggle with realistic wave, shading, getting the right murky water colors. There's going to be a lot of this in this series so I might has well dive in.

p.s. I'm not looking forward to doing sand either...
