Instinct 2


A second piece for the IF topic of "instinct". Trying to play with some texture and pattern a bit in this one.

I guess I have a pet peeve about dogs nosing where they don't belong - can't they just learn some darn manners?

Instinct


1 of 2 pieces that I've been working on for the Illustration Friday topic this week. The second will be a more editorial/less juvenile take on the same concept.

I used this opportunity to really start playing around with the layered look on the werewolf. I'm pretty happy with the results, but am not sure if it should have been taken further. Hmmm. I also wanted to keep the dog much more simply rendered as a contrast to the scary werewolf. I think that worked well.

Thanks for the comments on the last post - I'm such a critique junkie.

My firsts


This is my first blog, and my first submission for the Illustration Friday topic of the week, which is "Celebrate". Please critique if you feel the urge - and don't hold back, I can take it!
