Description I'm not very pleased with this painting. I think maybe half of it's working and half not so much. Walruses are always fun though, if not a bit heavy on the wrinkles. And bears too. Bears are pretty cute.

I LOVE the way the walrus has his little tongue out.

I like it. I think the way you chose to do the composition really shows a sense of scale with the animals and you are drawn right nown the polar bears neck to the center of the scene.

I still think its really beautiful. I love how you color, I can see those pink and blue shades... it makes this art really pleasant to look at.

I think it is adorable, and maybe I see what you mean by "half not working", as I assume that you may be referring to a busy lower half and relatively simple upper half. Perhaps the composition could be drawn downward as the polar bear is happily sleeping, curled around the child (a more cozy scene)? Such a suggestion is almost irrelevant, however, compared to the adorable livelihood of the piece. I like when walruses are heavy on the wrinkles, too The technique and coloring are harmonious and well chosen, as always!
