Oil and Water... and Lu

"Rotten Banana" was the intended title, and subject, for this blog post. But, as you see, there are no rotten bananas here. Just a very curious cat named Lu and a painting of faceless dolls.

I created this watercolor years ago while earning my commercial art degree. I'd used oils prior to that but, as I discovered, there are few similarities between the two. Each have unique qualities that I love. 

This painting is not exceptional by any means but I feel that it has its purpose—other than being a required assignment in school. Like they say, "there's a story in there somewhere." Maybe I can tie the painting to the Lock and Key bit from a couple months ago.
