After seeing Alex Chiou's amazing painting on her LJ, I thought about paints and water colors and things.
I always thought water colors looked like this:
You know, mix water and chalk, can't really see anything when you try to paint with it. But then I remembered that I bought a set of water colors in China,
They're kind of fun!
I have a weird obsession with drawing elephants :P
