Terence the Tortoise comes to visit! Let's paint a watercolor and pen and ink land turtle just for fun! This is my painting for Day 2 of #worldwatercolormonth2024. Why not follow my prompts and paint the animals of the world this month? Share on social using #worldwatercolormonthdas and #worldwatercolormonth. (And I tried really hard not to think about the desert scene in Breaking Bad while I was painting this….)

About my brushes
I have always bought my favorite brushes from Drawell direct from Japan. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 112, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
