Description

Homer
March 6th 2017
Watercolor
5x7 inches


“Yea, and if some god shall wreck me in the wine-dark deep,
even so I will endure…
For already have I suffered full much,
and much have I toiled in perils of waves and war.
Let this be added to the tale of those.”

~ Odysseus, from The Odyssey by Homer

Just a little watercolor practice sketch I did for my Watercolor II class. I have a lot of trouble keeping my whites, so this was good practice in...sorta restraining my hand from blotting them all out. :XD: I played around with some neutrals and threw them around to see what would happen. I used a photo of my own that I took of Homer's bust at the Louvre as a reference.
