Description Nothing much to this..just MORE watercolor and pencil fun from my sketchbook.
It actually looks even worse in real life.

I put a detail of the little fox girl in my scraps if you want to see it more closely - [link]

If this says anything...it says I MISS WINTER.

I didn't even know you had this one I was searching keywords for a painting that i'm working on and this came up a few pages in. Totally put me in the mood that I want to be in - COLD...it's too blistering hot where I am, but that brings me to my other question..."How did I miss this from all this time of knowing you?" because i'm cool like that

Marzipanapple [2005-09-03 00:16:49 +0000 UTC]

Ah, the colors are so nice and washed out. You really get a sense that it's bone-numbingly cold there.

Her tail is really adorable. It looks so fluffy, yet it too looks like it's slinking back from the cold wind. The poor dear.

Her outfit is just perfect, and the crow really brings something very good to the picture. Lovely.

TabrisXVII [2005-08-26 12:17:23 +0000 UTC]

There's nothing more pleasing to the eye than an artist who knows how to handle their medium, and what wonderful control over watercolours you have! This reminds me a little of an illustration for a childrens book, what with it's soft colours and engaging characters; the crow peering down on the pretty little fox with the sad eyes is nothing short of absolutely endearing. Excellent composition, too.

It's also extremely refreshing to see such a unique painting style! So many things are bold, bright, and garish nowadays...so it's lovely to see something as gentle as this.

(And for the record; I miss winter too!)

I want to tell you how pretty I think this is. It's nothing much and probably redundant, but I had to tell you...aahh!!

luve In reply to DonkeyPunch3000 [2005-08-23 11:05:45 +0000 UTC]

Honestly? Redundant is 'ohhhh it looks like its from a storybook.'
A nice, plain old 'this is pretty' is a welcome familiarity XD
Thanks so much. All your work is just WOW.

corvidophiliac [2005-08-01 01:01:56 +0000 UTC]

Awww.... (lovely corvid ) ...she looks so sad and alone somehow. I suppose the bleak landscape doesn't help much, heh.. certainly gives the image atmosphere though.

I have to agree with ~striffa-raven -- it certainly did remind me of Belle & Sebastian's The Fox in the Snow... other than for obvious songs heh, the lyrics did come to mind...
I don't know if you've ever heard them, and I can't claim to know your musical tastes, but you may like them...

Again, fabulous illustrative and watercolour work... I do love the little detaisl such as her knit cap and scarf. They look warm and homey.
...as for winter? It'll be back again before you know it.

corvidophiliac In reply to striffa-raven [2005-08-01 00:43:55 +0000 UTC]

Fox in the Snow is actually by a lovely band (which I love) called Belle and Sebastian. Rasputina must do a cover of the song... hmm. I like them too, I'd like to hear their take on the song sometime..

oh man, I absolutely LOVE this picture. The details in the little fox girl just make my stomach do flips (don't really know why)...probably because of what a large, luxurious tail she has.

I miss winter, too (as obvious by my many deviations)

Tender colours and again the whole story with beginning and maybe with ending in one beautiful picture.
