Description "When the snow falls,
and the white winds blow,
the lone wolf dies,
but the pack survives."

--------
A little ode to Mohawk's appreciation for his pack. Highvalley took him and his family in when they had little to offer the pack. They gave him shelter, food, community, and purpose. They encouraged his training as a Keeper. Though he fears his future responsibility to mix his blood with the pack's, he is thankful nonetheless for the place they've provided for him.Β 


The quote is from one of my favorite scenes from the first book of A Song of Ice and Fire (aka A Game of Thrones)! I messed it up on the image- ah well

The setting is beautiful and I like the mist and the pose
And the wolf shadows in the background are realistic, it makes me think of a film cover!

Yesss. What a great piece. Those dull, wintry colors mixed in with the little bit of sunlight seeping through the clouds is so befitting for Mo. His pose is so fluid too. Simply gorgeous!

Thank you Cele! I'm glad you like the colors. Originally I was going to go with vibrant, sunset colors, but then I didn't want to take away from Mo being the focus of the image, so I chose the grays instead. I'm really glad you like it
