Day 4 of the June Watercolor Challenge: an alligator. This alligator is the subject of an art quilt I’m working on. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve painted it in watercolor (maybe 30?). I’ve also created a few prototypes with paint on fabric followed by quilting. Nothing worth showing yet.
I don’t know where the dark line on the snout came from. I must have fallen asleep with the brush in my hand.

A Hereford and a Longhorn on my way to and from being out and about. I’d have more photos of cattle of all kinds except that I usually see them when I am on a two-lane road without any shoulder or any place to pull over safely.
Oh, look, a rest stop
Convenient, isn’t it
This wire hanging here
I photographed these webs with my phone camera.
How To Make A Cat Nervous
Stop with camera
Cat eyes me with suspicion
I’m up to no good?
How to make anyone nervous: stop to photograph something in their direction. I’m very careful on my urban hikes as to what I photograph and try not to intrude on anyone’s privacy. Well, I think I’m being careful but sometimes I still seem to crowd someone’s personal space. I photographed this cat only to have someone yell “HEY!” from over the fence. I explained to the man that I liked the cat’s face and that’s what I photographed. That seemed to alleviate the situation and I continued on without any more interaction. But really, if you want to make someone nervous, just get out your camera.
It's a long story ...
