Raccoon Watercolour

Raccoon Watercolour Painting

8 x 10 inch watercolor art of raccoon on tree trunk

There is no lack of raccoons in my backyard, sometimes I see a whole family of them strutting across the lawn. Ever hear a raccoon at night? They scream, they snort, growl and make all sorts of other sounds that can keep you awake at night.  But that's just how they communicate with one another.

The raccoon art pictured here is from an animal and wildlife art challenge on a forum I participated in this month.  I had a choice from a variety of animal photos, one of which was a raccoon, so I thought I'd give it a whirl and hone up on practicing watercolor painting.
