Description I just finished this this morning. I couldn't decide on a design for the fox, so I did something simple. I rather like how it goes so nicely with the rest of the colors.

I drew this in honor of Spring, by more so because of ATF (Acquire the Fire). It's this Christian concert/conference thing that went from Friday afternoon until Saturday night. Two days of constant music and preaching and all kinds of stuff! I'll admit, I enjoyed it, but the rapper was really loud.

Anyway, on the first night, they were saying that you have to give your whole heart to God and not hold on to any little piece. They invited all who felt moved to come down to the floor and get as close to the stage as you could. We (my group and I) decided to go, too. As we got there (there was barely enough room for us to get to the main floor) the person speaking talked about letting the pieces of your heart that you've been holding onto fall to the ground...but I thought of a different picture..letting your heart pieces scatter into the wind up to heaven like flower pedals flowing in the wind....So this is my illustration of something similar to that.

I did totally bawl at that part, but it was my most favorite part of the whole weekend.

This is a beautiful image, with good color balance and a nice, uplifting theme. Also, the fox is gorgeous in colored pencil, with the colorful highlights in the fur and the lifelike pose. Excellent work!

I may not be religious, but I can really appreciate how moving those words must have been ^^ to inspire something as beautiful as this... amazing! I really love all the vivid colors, and the bright, peaceful setting of the whole thing :3 it looks lovely. fox especially. The anatomy is excellent, though I would lengthen the tail a bit, but other than that, its perfect. I'm currently working on drawing a picture with a fox who is disintegrating into rose petals, and when I saw this, it reminded me of the image when it first popped into my head. you did a fantastic job on this, and again... those colors

Thank you very much! I think I would have made the tail a little longer, except I ran out of paper. Sometimes I misjudge the size of things, haha. thank you very much again!
