Description
"High and yet more high to freedom as a bird he springs,And the aureole outbreathing, gold and silver wings
Plume the brow and crown the seraph: soon his journey done
He will pass our eyes that follow, sped beyond the sun.
None may know the mystic radiance, King, will there be thine,
Far beyond the light enfolded in the dark divine."
~The Robing of the King, George William (“A. E.”) Russell (1867–1935)

This is really really well done! The fur is so perfectly detailed and the grass doesn't look rubberstamped like so many field paintings I see. I really like this ^w^

Thank you. I find I have to be really careful with grass and foliage brushes and use lots of layers to get rid of that "cut and paste" effect, but it can be done...and much better than painting each blade of grass by hand. I do find I have to paint the fur by hand though; I can't find a brush that works as I want it to.

Well you certainly did a good job at layering!
And yes, painting each blade by hand is a big ol' pain. XD
And you do such a good job on the fur I'd say you don't need a brush.
