Description As with all of my watercolors, all I can say is I wanted to post this and this is the best scan I can get. In real life, it's much darker and richer in color, and I'm pretty pleased with it.

Anyway, it's done from an old sketch I did last summer. I considered making it a Japanese racoon dog, or Tanuki, but after watching Pom Poko they kindof freak me out.

He's makin' tea. Like ya do.

Watercolor on cold-pressed Arches watercolor paper. Copius use of undersea green, indigo, and sepia.

It makes me really happy that he's making tea This reminds me of the illustrations in the Beatrix Potter books.

Thanks! ^_^ He's totally making tea. I wonder if he's expecting a guest, or if he's just making it for himself...

damn watercolors and scanners.

It looks really good though, I can't wait to see it in person because it's really cute.

though now I want to draw terrifying tanuki pictures just to traumatize the world.
