MY ENTRY FOR @SIRSENSEI's contest!
I have painted and drawn a Rhino as a tribute to the endangered animal's struggle in trophy hunting and poaching. Spreading the message of compassion and love!
Rhinos have become one of my favorite animals, they're least popular but they're very sensitive, emotional gentle and yet big and very strong. What a combo!
Title
Rhinoceros
Medium
Mixed media
- Watercolor on watercolor paper
- Sign pen
Time:
3 hours duration
Dedication
Dedicated to all Rhinos who were killed for their horns and to all rangers who risk their lives to protect these beautiful creatures!
PROCESS PHOTOS
- Painting raw and freehand, no pencil marks. Starting with a skyblue base added with some grey, orange and yellow.
- I add some midtones to define shape and add depth. See all the new colors I mixed in.
- I have defined the blue eyes, and added textures in the background imitating and exaggerating sunset colors.
- With a 0.07 fine tip pen, and a 0.5 pen, I add dots and lines for darker parts and some shadows.
- Spreading across now, adding cross hatch and dots with forming textures.
- Thicker and darker pen for other parts where it needs more shading. It'll help save time too.
- Some parts look pale, and needs definition. A quick retouch of watercolor here and there.
- Ink and paint as much as needed until finished.
- I cut it to fit the scanner. But I took photos to document it all.
FINAL PRODUCT

Let this sink in. All animals deserve to be protected and live happily.
