Description
Why is it that no matter what I try, I can never be enough for you?Please full view, so you can see the details.
The scanner took its mighty stab of doom at this picture and not even my tinkering around with it in Photoshop could save it entirely.
This is something I've been working on for the past few weeks, and I'm not entirely pleased with the result (especially on the computer >.< ) but I'll fix it no more! It's a portrait of that arctic fox that keeps popping up in my gallery (what can I say? I love the little guy 
) taken from one of my not-so-great photos.#16 in the 100 theme challenge [link]
Colored pencil on 8 1/2x11" printer paper
Oh, and please tell me if this doesn't look good on your moniter, i.e. it's too dark. The one I'm using is insanely bright and I sometimes have trouble telling colors apart and whatnot.

Amazing! As per usual. I really love this, Do you do commisions?? I love for you to draw my puppy, well that is if your prices aren't too high.
Anyhow, great work!! Well done you!!

Thank you.
Colored pencil, no background - $15-35
Colored pencil, simple backgrund (a color or a wall or something easy for me) - $25-40
Colored pencil, complex background - $45-100
Graphite, no backgrund - $20-25
All of the price changes depend on the pose, background, and quality of the photo (I can do a picture if the photo is pretty blurry, but expect to pay more and not have quite as nice a result...). If you want a person in the picture, that costs extra, but only about $5 more. Unless you ask specifically otherwise or the photo is too blurry for me to tell, I will add fur detail like I did in [link] and [link] Um...I think that's it. Sorry that was so long.

Hmmm, I'll have to think about that, you've got some really good prices there so im very tempted. I'll get back to you.

Okay, take your time. Giving you my commission prices actually reminded me that I need to get my lazy self in gear and find a good printmaker before a certain craftfair I'm doing. I have no prints of my newer stuff...

I know a lot of the pics on here are very dark, but I think it may have been my old monitor!! My new one is just fantastic, so if you're ever worried, just ask!! :blowkiss

He looks very nice and soft. I admire your patience to sit there and draw all those fur hair strokes. Reminds me of pen and ink I avoided in art class.

very cool. I love multitasking. Nice to know I'm not the only one you does it. You do it better though. The strokes are so even.

That's only because I do for about an average of six hours a day.

The scanner really didn't do this justice.
Not that it isn't pretty, it's just that it was much prettier when I saw it in class.

I know...I like it so much better in real life.
