Description Joining in Carrie Rogers' weekly nature art challenge on Instagram with some playful fur seals. These guys are such a funny puzzle to capture: overall they're so lithe and otter-like, but from some angles they just turn into sloth-faced oblongs. I used reference images from the Australian Museum & the Nature Footage Youtube channel.

Watercolor, watercolor pencil, white gel pen. 8.25 x 8.25", Hand Book Paper Co. watercolor journal.
