Seals on ice - by Chloe (grade 4)

Chloe decided to try water colour for this picture of two seals. After drawing her animals, she used a large brush to cover her background with water, taking care to  go around the seals so that they would remain dry.   She then mixed a puddle of ice blue colour, applied it to the wet paper, letting the wet paint roll around and spread out.  When satisfied with her background, she let it dry before moving on to paint the seals.  I think she effectively captured frozen landscape these two little guys inhabit!
