the long-retired mariner

This fellow is 3 x 4" on illustration board.  (you can kinda see on this scan shows how much schmutz I ought to clean off my scanner...)   ...continuing with a winter palette, apparently...

I'm trying to go outside my comfort zone with gouache lately-- not relying so much on pencil lines, trying to bring more light and depth into the paint since it's truly such a beautiful medium. I have so much to learn.
