Illustration Friday: Soaked

Downpour, watercolor, graphite& marker, 6 x 12", 2011.
I kept things super simple this time.  I feel like this is more of a composition or color study than complete illustration, but I like it that way. 

It rained almost all week here. That's the only thing I could think of when I heard this week's word was soaked.  I definitely got soaked a few times because I can never remember an umbrella!

  5. This is very descriptive. I can almost feel the gusts of wind that are blowing the rain this way and that. Lovely colours too!
