So..Ever work so hard on a piece..you find you have nothing to say about it? This little watercolor is a present for my mother, who loves pandas and Raccoons (she had a rescued one as a pet when she was little), so, the animal somewhere between in appearance. I'm very pleased with how it came out, I'm still very new to watercolors, this being only my fifth completed piece. I also used a watercolor block for the first time on this, SO USEFUL. Anyways, since I am so new, to watercolor painting and wildlife painting, any advice and imput would be greatly appreciated.

Medium: Holbein Watercolor on cold press cotton WC paper

Palette: Paynes Grey, Burnt sienna, cadmium red purple, yellow grey, sepia, perm yellow light, cobalt blue hue, sap green, mineral violet, grey of greys

Also, any tips on scanning watercolors would be appreciated, I'm going to be rescanning this on a better machine but am still having trouble getting the scans right.
