Learn to draw realistic animals in watercolor!

Hey friends.
Welcome to the first class in the series about drawing animals in watercolor. We will draw them in monochrome (only one paint) to feel better the character and features, not thinking about the colors. It seems to me very expressive.

The hedgehog is the final illustration of this course. It is quite complicated and requires certain skills. You will gain them by step-by-step exercises, practicing skills. I will show all my techniques that I use in drawing animals. Then we will paint simple examples. And only after that draw a portrait of the panda and the illustration of a hedgehog.

It will be interesting experience and useful class!
