ahh the flaws. the many, many MANY FLAWS. like that awkwardly tube-sock shaped muzzle and the fur that doesn't move fluidly at all and the wobbly horizon line... shame. shame everywhere.
I'm definitely going to redo this sometime.
but complaints aside, I'm kinda happy with the shading and stuff. I learned that chalk paper can work with acrylics if you don't get it too wet. pretty neat stuff. and I like the snows I usually do much worse snow in my backgrounds, but this turned out decent.

Ah this is beautiful I just love the colours and the highlights are so gorgeous ^^

The title wasn't inspired by Poets of the Fall by any chance was it?

Goddammit these new deviation pages mess me up, I almost started to sream when I didin't find the favourite button right away
Anyhow! Again a stunning piece from your gallery. I love the colours and the feeling inside the piece. Girl you are pure magic, indeed~

Honestly, if you hadn't mentioned the flaws that [no doubt] are glaring to you, I wouldn't have noticed them! Β 


Anyway, the technique [acrylics on chalk paper] has a very cool glowing quality in this night scene! Β That snow, as you point out, really does look right, and I feel a chill as if it is winter here [it most assuredly is not, atm ] whilst looking at the scene, as if transported there....

o: you think?! well dang! wish I could look at it from the perspective someone who didn't draw it



I love the effect as well <3 I'm hoping to do it on more art sometime!Β 

wow that's just.... gosh, one of the best comments I've ever gotten! it's the goal of an artist to make art with enough emotion and effect to bring the viewer into piece, even just a little. Β it means so much to me that I am able to do thatΒ

Being self critical is how you know you're an artist
I didn't notice anything really 'wrong' with it. I like how it looks, especially the fur and tail.

as do I x.x Β I've always wondered how people who do watercolors Β paints and pastels and whatnot can just splash a bit of blue or purple or grey, and suddenly a whole field looks like it went from paper to snow. -envious- Β but I find acrylic is at least a little easier to get the snowy look with :>Β

I feel the same way about a lot of art ;_;Β 

it feels like people are gathering up all the potential to make art, and hoarding it for themselves ._. because otherwise I -should- be able to draw ice and stuff too x.x

lol, sometimes I watch speedpaints and drawings and it feels calming to watch it, until I try to do it myself. Then all that zen-like calmness goes out the window XD
