I'm so sorry it's so late, and I really hope you like it!

It's definitely one of the more interesting creatures I've been asked to draw, hehe. :]

i was cleaning out my room to move 2 my new house a while ago and i found this painting again! I never got a frame for it but I'll get around to that finally hopefully lmao (im fmm, I changed accounts a few years ago) I'm still kind of embarrassed b/c this oc was... odd as hell... But I always really liked how you drew her for this!!! (WAY better than what i'd designed)

I love how the creature stands out from the rest of the colors, but then, around it's feet, it starts to blend in.

Kinda reminds me of a creature in Avatar...I could totally see it living in that world. Such a unique design and you draw it beautifully~!

So lovely! The creature looks like it would be opal/bioluminescent, and the petals around the head are really cool!

Do you know how much I love your art? A whole lot, that's how much. 8D This creature is too cool.

Question, since I noticed that you like to splatter your paint a lot (and it looks ah-mazing): What do you use to splatter your paint, a paintbrush or a toothbrush? :]

IceandSnow In reply to nitoa [2009-12-28 07:33:49 +0000 UTC]

Oooh, well, usually I use a paintbrush because that's just what I have on hand at the time. But I do occasionally use toothbrushes too when I can find them. :3

I really really love how the pinks gradually turn into blues and purples. <3 You're so good at blending colours.

It looks so windy and blizzardy.

Well thanks!
I just recently noticed that I've been using the same general color scheme in the last several pictures I've submitted... and it's starting to bother me. xD
