One Done Overnight

I've had a bit of trouble sleeping in the past few weeks. I won't get into why as it's not that thrilling of a reason, pretty normal for this day and age I would guess. So, in spite of my bouts of insomnia, I decided that it would be prudent of me to do something productive with my extra hours. Instead of pacing around the house and having conversations with the cats and dogs, I painted this piece. It's a triceratops skull (I know you know, we've all seen "The Land Before Time", or at the very least, "Jurassic Park") with the important bits labeled in old-timey handwriting. I then "stained" the paper with watercolors to give it that parchment paper look. I may end up going back over some of the lines to make it pop out a little more, and add some white highlights for the sake of separating the skull from the neutral tone of the paper. That's all for now :)
