WIP (traditional watercolor) Uncle Carl Has a Chicken on His Head

MOO

I am in the process of paintng the first page to show at my dummy review THIS Friday. I need to fix the eyes and I have more details to put in, shadows, etc. I'm a little nervous about the shadows, etc. Here is a black and white and a color photo of what I have so far.

The test that goes with it is:
Uncle Carl has a chicken on his head!
A chicken on his head?
Yes, a chicken on his head.
It's sitting there picking at a long piece of thread.

The text, I think, will go up in the left hand corner area.

Thanks for input on what I can do.

@marsha-kay-ottum-owen it almost looks like they are in a house, could you make the walls more barn-like?

@holleywilliamson Yes, I plan on doing that. This is just the first layers of color. I thought I might dry brush kind of like boards. What do you think?
