Description I recently purchased a new tablet (Bamboo Pen) and this was my first project! Two days, 8+ hours and ALOT of patience.

No real meaning behind this piece. I just wanted a practice work to try my hand at different textures, ideas, and values. Im really digging the Monochromatic "dreamy" vibe of it Thoughts?

Program: GIMP
Tablet: Bamboo Pen
Time: 8+ hours spread over two days
References: images of Deer skulls found on google

Yay! I'm sure that a lot of your watchers would totally watch your drawings. It's an exciting thing to watch especially if it's your favorite artist!

Those use of aqua and pale color gives this piece an ethereal feel. The horned skull and feathers with a backdrop of trees leaves much to the imagination except one thing, the female, the focus, is of a supernatural origin. As always my <3 you have gone above and beyond and I'm so proud of you.

Ahh, its gorgeousss! ;A; It's like nightvision but so dreamlike... I'm dying over the feathers, and the skull and the face and the atmosphere and EVERYTHING. Mostly the feathers. And the atmosphere. I want to make that, I want to make it real ;A; /huddles obsessively in corner

This looks VERY well done, and a great piece for a "First" with a Bamboo! I am so excited to see this from you.

It makes me think of a book called Fire Bringer, which is about a Deer who fulfills a prophecy and stuff.

I highly recommend it. Did you ever read any Redwall or Animal Farm books? They are similar in style. Really well done.
