Saidy's Winterland

Description

UPDATE: Added in the black patch on her back :D

:points: Commission for *SaidyWolf :D Thank you so much for your patience! I really enjoyed working on this piece and I hope you like it! :huggle:

This was a lot of fun to work on and my first dedicated attempt at mixed media. The wolf, Saidy, is done in a mix of Prisma, Derwent and Faber Castell Polychromos pencils (first time using the Fabers and I love them!). The background is all ink, except for Saidy's shadow and the peaks of the mountains. I wanted some pencil texture in the background. The original has a thin white border.

My sister was the one to suggest a winter scene after I finished Saidy.

Colored Pencils, Acrylic Ink on Hot Press Watercolor Paper. Time: Roughly 10-12 hours + drying time.

I love this art work. The dog is well detailed in its fur and shading. I like the feather, necklace, and bracelet it just gives the character more depth. The scar does the adds more character also. I think that the tail looks a little too short and in a awkward position. In the future you need to work on the background a little longer. It doesn't have much detail as I like it too. This is just my opinion though. Good job on using different art tools and combine them so beautifully. You should have incorporated some colored pencil in the background to tie it all together.
