Mantis

Here is a texture filled sketch. It lacks a bit of symmetry. Though that was done on purpose to direct the eye in a direction to the right. Alone as it is - it truly looks pretty wonky. Still the idea was to fill the space with color and texture to define the form a bit more. I like what happened with ink, water color and colored pencil.

Amazing things happen when you play. Old lessons are re-learned or remembered. This was a fun doodle. I'll have to show what whole pages look like in my sketch books next.
