aka when you accidentally paint a great final version on bad sketchbook paper

working on a few little spots with my baby bobcat

They're active around dusk so I think I'm gonna have to use the foliage colors to indicate that....time to rework the palette

I think the expression works though!!

We are living in desert land

ahhhh

working on the hopefully final spots!

omg that scary moment when it's really starting to come together.....

Oh that's GORGEOUS. Those spots!

Teeff ah thank you!! Gotta finish them up today, these sketches were warmups

i love that ermine the most???

RIGHT??? God I need to like. Do something more with him

He's so suss

I love that ermine

omg, these are all adorable. The fluff on that fox

prep work for an Ostara painting!

Gonna be thinking about balance for the final compostion...a mix of light and dark and life and death
