Animal Watercolor!

I decided that I really wanted to watercolor a peacock and an elephant, meaning no sleep...and I also found an adorable picture of the prettiest hummingbird ever. I free handed the peacock and elephant, but I traced the hummingbird on the light table in pencil first. I watercolored them first then added line art in black sharpie. I drew the baby elephant first, I wished I didn't center him and had made the grass better. I love the colors that I somehow mixed on the hummingbird. It took forever drawing in all those little feathers. The peacock was what I worked on last. There were a lot of lines for the background feathers that took so long to do. I was working on the feathers at around 2 or 3 in the morning before it was due, so I was kinda falling asleep during the whole process, so I could have turned out a little better :)
