Circus
This was an illustration painted back in 1998. I had to model as a clown with a joker's hat on for the whole class. The painting had to contain a circus tent, a tiger or lion, an elephant, a monkey, and at least two clowns. It also had to have the "Ringling Barnum" circus logo at the top. I made the tent blend into one color to make it disappear into the background for the circus acts.

Supplies used: watercolors, acrylic paint, prismacolors, ink and cold press illustration board.

Time: approx. 8 hours
