Addendum:  Hi Paul, my second time around.  I feel I blended the colors more in this one.  The ears.... Oh the ears🫩.  I totally messed them up.  I look at my ears and they are one demensional.  Yours are three demensional.  I know it's how you placed the pigment, But I'm just not quite there yet.  I will be painting this spirit bear again.  Any advise if you have a few moments would be greatly appreciated.  Actually, I want to hang this bear on my wall.  So I will painting it many times over until I feel I've done the Spirit Bear justice:)

This was so awesome to paint!  When I was painting the water and sky I discovered there was something on the left side of my paper.  I'm not sure what it is.  I may have accidentally splatter something on the paper without realizing it.  No worries tho, I will paint the Spirit Bear again.  Thanks Paul for another wonderful class!
