One Sketch #78) Triceratops Skeleton #30x30DirectWatercolorChallenge2018

It's mightily impressive
And that's to say the least
It really must have acted like
A very horny beast.

I loved dinosaurs from about the age of 5 onwards. for the 5 year old me, my idea of a good day out was being taken on a tube train from Boston Manor to South Kensington to visit the Natural History Museum and see the dinosaur fossils. Of course, Dizzy the Diplodocus isn't there at the moment - he's on a tour. Still I loved the triceratops skull as well. 

I'll be honest, I still like dinosaurs. Why else would I look back on my visit to Berlin last year, with the visit to the Berlin Natural History Museum as a highlight - what with it housing a Brachiosaurus skeleton, and the most complete T Rex. 

I'll be honest, the first sketch I made today was this biro stegosaurus, sketched in a break at work. 
I'll be honest, when this one worked out, it seemed a natural leap of the imagination to do a watercolour of one for the direct watercolour challenge.
