Lol snow looks so deceptively simple... To be honest, even when people claim they've perfected the look of "snow" or "ice," it's never like the real thing... It's really hard!
I wish it snowed more where I am D: .... or more like snowed at all XD maybe one day every 4 to 10 years LOL XD

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE I SWEAR- Snow seeks to mock all artists ;_;
RIGHT
TEXAS IS LIKE "you like snow? what? oh that's too bad~"

Hehe yes XD It's so evil ;.; My name is FrostKittyPaw... I have frost in it because I like snow/ice (especially ice days in school XD)... but I don't have like any art with it since it's so hard D:
YEAH D: AUSTIN IS THE WORST OF IT TOO D: There's like a bubble around here.... It snows on occasion in freaking Dallas and Houston... But here in the middle of the state? NOPE, CAN'T DO THAT! .-. ... Probably best it doesn't too with how bad the traffic is already and how a little rain drives everyone crazy, literally XD lol

but someday, when you are able to draw it to your liking, then you can draw ALL THE ICE AND SNOW <3
;_; you're kidding?? maaaaaaan that's just plain unfair 3:

Hehe yep!!!! And I'll be the snow/ice kitty king! 
Yeah ;.; Austin's weather and traffic suck... It's nice because being "weird" is sometimes okay (not as much as it use to be)... but still not a lot of people who like my cat stuff. I wear my cat hat everywhere even though it gets a bit worn/dirty XD I DO NOT FEAR THE EVIL JUDGEMENTS! > : O

As I say to my friends and those who want to enter in this realm of art: "Watercolor is the cruelest of teachers, doesn't allow the slightest mistake but makes you a tiop notch observing spirit"

It's so absorbing and rewarding... or painful... once I was doing a horse head in oils ( pre05.deviantart.net/fea8/th/p… ): I began to paint rouyghly 8:00 o'clock p.m.
Painted, painted... till my neck ached... raising my head was a bit painful... got my watch... 3:00 AM!

You did fabulously on the snow, seriously <3 and I love that disgruntled expression xD And the teeny tiny birds!! Super cute <3 Fantastic job with those rocks and the wood texture on the structure too. My favorite part though is the background that fades off into the distance, just really pretty watercolor textures in there ^^

TEACH ME YOUR WAYS
I'm super impressed with the shading and everything on such a snowy scene! And the detail, like in the birds and the forested background, and the shading on Ren! I love love love the irritated, grumpy look on her face! XD

I'm a horrible teacher thougghghghghgghgh

You are very good with expressions!! I've noticed all my animals I draw tend to have the same goofy smile. LOL.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Holy freaking glob this is seriously just so incredibly gorgeous!!! I mean... I'm just at a loss for words right now about how beautiful this is!
You really make Ren look so gorgeous, and I love how you give her so much personality - I really just how love beautiful she looks, and that expression... Holy crap, I just LOVE that expression!! Its like she's so grumpy, or like her feline side is about to come out and those birds are on the menu! But I really love the shiba attitude you've give her. I also just love your coloring, and how beautiful the colors just flow together. Okay, now last but defiantly not least... That background, holy wow, that background - I'm seriously just blown away by how absolutely GORGEOUS that background is! The detail you put into it, and the soft look of the snow to the detail of the woodland in the background, is all simply just beautifully done and has such a peaceful feel to it (which is why I can see why Ren looks so grumpy at those birds). I also must say I love the bell, and the shine you was able to give it!
Ugh, this really... Is simply just so thoughtful, and I'm just so speechless with how gorgeous this is. ;n;
This really means so much to me, thank you for doing this for me. ;n; Really, words honestly just cannot tell you how much I love this because I love it so very very much!!! May I get a unwatermarked version I can save to my Ren art folder on my computer so I can stare and gush all over it!

//cue the happy tears, of which there are a great many

I don't even know what to say, but gahhh
thank you so so much! I'm so super happy you like it as much as you do!
it was a blast to paint, especially ren and the bell (because I'm a sucker for shiny things and large fauna haha~) and I'm super happy the look I was going for came across so well! >w<
goshgoshgoshgoshgosh

You are seriously the most sweetest thoughtful person. ;n;
Thank you so much again for this! I do simply love it so very much! <3
And yes I would love the original too!! That is if you don't mind. ;n;
I don't mind waiting till after the holidays since I understand the horrors of mailing stuff during this time of year (it sucks).

I'm super happy you do
Untitled alriiighty~ there's the full rez no watermark version to save~

Thank you! I happily saved it to my Ren art folder, so I can happily stare at its gorgeousness!
And wow, the submission honestly doesn't do the true beauty of this image justice!
Oh yes, I know all to well the horrors of the post office during this time of year - Like literally last year Etoh and I stood in line at the post office for almost 2 hours just to mail ONE package out to my parents for Christmas. This lady was keeping the line up because she was mailing 100 (yes literally 100) packages out all in the same day. That really upset me.
