houses in my neighborhood, 1

I've started a series of pencil and watercolor pieces of houses in my neighborhood. This is the first one. I'm not quite satisfied with the way the watercolor turned out. I'll have to experiment more with layering transparencies next time. I like the way the cars turned out, though, and the shingles. 

I'm finally doing more drawing. Which means there will be more blogging here! If nothing else, I'm trying to go to a figure drawing class as often as possible. I may post some of my less embarrassing figure drawings here, we'll see. There are also some more Mulan illustrations on the way.
