Description
Buzzer, a G1 Summer Wing pony, sits in a crooked tree and envies butterflies.I was inspired somewhat by my cat, who likes to chase butterflies. He's this big blue-silver bundle of fur, and he tries to sneak up on butterflies, oh so craftily, then does the obligatory butt-wiggle, and misses. Every time. Another inspiration is the burr-oak trees that grow in my neighborhood. I wasn't familiar with them before I moved to my current place, and their branches just grow at the most fun angles.
There are probably easier ways to draw foliage with colored pencils. Oh well.
I may have possibly gone to see an exhibit of French impressionists before doing this.

Oo, another Buzzer fan? You're like... the third person I've run across on dA who even knew who Buzzer was.

Thank you!
Fairy pony! I like that name. (Officially, she's a "Summerwing pony".)

The tree looks amazing. I can definitely see the impressionist influences, particularly in the leaves.
And Buzzer is adorable, as always.
