Oddly it was work that gave me this idea.
I am actually surprised I made it to the end of SOC, it was fun, I learned something, got to see a lot of neat ideas and I hope we get to do it again next year!

Seahorse Edition
So this weeks Summer of Color had me stumped at first. I could not think of anything that I liked with two oranges and a blue. I didn't want to do a dragon, and an orange and blueberry sounded silly :D 
The visual display for the one brand of bathing suits had framed pictures of seahorse paintings and other ocean related goodies. I have looked at it many many times since the beginning of spring and this time it just clicked. I want to draw a seahorse! So yeah, seahorse :)
