Description Duhurr, corny title, but I'm so burnt out on this picture that I can't bother to think up anything else.

This was a commission for Ace Bearpaws of his character, performing some wind-magic in the woods. I'm actually fairly pleased with how this came out, we decided to make it look sooort of like an animation cel, what with the flat-shaded character and painted background.

Oh my lord, do I need to learn how to do backgrounds 8| And decent lighting. Still! I'm satisfied, and so was he, so it's all good.

the background is to die for liz, as is the whole picture I've been too lazy to work on mine but when I get into it, you'll be one of my inspirations! <3

This right here is how I have wanted my art to look for more than ten years.

Keep at it! I remember admiring certain artists, like, five years ago and thinking "there's no way I'll ever be able to do that".

Yet I look at the same artists now and in some ways feel that I've surpassed them. So it's all relative. The best stuff to compare yourself to is your own!

Trust me, my art from like 2000 is just hiiiilariously bad.

so is mine. But i have been on a bad Block lately and your art has been more or less inspiring me so I might actually come out with something soon.

I like the belly. It's a nice change of pace from the usually athletic-looking furries I've seen.

Yay Liz you finished it! I love your background! It's so painterly and soft and sets the mood of the forest! Yes, the animation cell look for Ace was a good call! He really stands out to the eye and yet still looks like he's supposed to be in that setting. I like the slight glow of his tail markings. Its very well done and you should be proud of yourself! Ima fav!
