i did a lot better on this than i thought i would...i found gouache tricky to work with at first, but as rusty says "practice practice practice" it got a lot better. i really love it and i think i did a good job, the tiger is awesome. rawr! the only thing i found to be difficult is the background..because i didnt know what to do with it at first, i painted the three images and then put in the green and it was tricky....doesnt look too bad....?
