The Birthday Skull

This is my second painting in my "I'm gonna learn me some watercolors!" phase...despite the flowers being all pooty...I am really happy with how the whole thing came out. I'm not sure if this picture really shows it...there are little paint splatters on the skull...and if nothing else occurred during the process of making this piece...I realized how much FUN it is to spray paint all over with an old toothbrush. Yes, I am aware that I am a simple, simple person.

The reason it is called The Birthday Skull is because...back when I moved into my apartment...I decided that my refrigerator looked really bare and needed some art. So I broke out some computer paper and my HUGE box of Crayolas and drew myself a skull with some flowers. My friend Joanne loved it...and she said she needed one...so, since her birthday is coming up, and I didn't know what to get her...I thought I would make her skull...only not so crayoney.

As always...honest opinions are severely welcome.
