lovelovelove!

I really enjoy looking the light/shadow contrast on this piece and love how you did the water and how realistic the moose looks (expesially I like the hair on the butt ~).

Thank you for drawing this magnificent piece, it's really joy to the eye.

Was this in the MCAD art sale last November? If it was I remember seeing it and I thought it was incredible! A lot of other people were admiring it too *v*

If I'm mistaken, sorry!

You have awesome work!

It was! I'm somehow super excited that someone here has seen it there, in a sense... I dunno, brings real life and online life full circle or something? Haha!

Awesome that you recognized it! And thanks!

P.S. just wondering... do YOU know the circumference of a moose ?

This will probably sound strange but I'm going to be getting a tattoo of a moose soon and I'm going in to see my artist tomorrow -- would you possibly mind if I used this as a reference for my work?
I think it's beautiful.

This is great, your mixed media stuff is phenomenal. Did you use acrylic or watercolor for the moose, specifically the fur?

zarhx [2009-11-20 21:06:02 +0000 UTC]

Those leaves look absolutely wonderful! The water does as well.

I'm a big fan of moose, so this grabbed my attention :3

Aww, thank you kindly! Makes me feel a hair better about it, considering today marks the 4th time I've tried to sell it. Ah well.

Oooooo....I wish i could draw a moose...tried it once, but eh, i failed quite miserably at it

Anyway, love it! I really like how you colored it and how you focused in on the animal itself. Simplistic and beautiful...Again, i love it!

Moose are tricky subjects. I look at this one now and realize his legs should be longer. (I don't think anyone else has even pointed that out yet... )

And thank you!

absolutely awesome job with the details of the fur, but the most I enjoy the feel of autumnbreeze in this pic, the colours on the water and the movement of the leaves I hate summer and love winter and autumn the most: during winter itΒ΄s cold and ah-so quiet and the nature just looks beautiful under itΒ΄s sleep Autumn: the colours. Doubt I need to descripe more

This is so lovely! I love how you did the details, and in watercolor! Plus it's a moose, I love moose. I saw one today, with his antlers just coming in. Great work you have.

Why thanks! This painting is on a 22x30 sheet of watercolor paper. I can't normally work that much smaller if I am doing full figures!

Very glad you like it, too!

wow! The fur detail is great but I especially like the water that anchors him, and the gust of leaves... he doesn't need anything else, it would take away from him! Lovely work!
