Description what the hell did I just draw

I seriously... should be in bed. It's supposed to be 101 tomorrow.

well I finally got out of my feline art block by drawing an ever so boring kitty I made it the design of Leafpool so it's...Leafpool? Haven't drawn Warriors fanart in a longgg time, would like to again.

anatomy is a bit wonky on this and it's horrible messy yadda yadda

bad thing to do: paint something in PS, try and blend it over in sai. LOL NO.

This is an interesting work. I haven't often heard of painting things in PS and blending in SAI. However, it seemed to work out well in your situation. The mood of this piece is kind of formal and serious judging by the lighting. Your way of creating slight blur effects gives this a slightly mystical and ethereal appearance.

Your character choice is also quite interesting, in the way that you have a warrior cat but didn't start out with that intent. That way, your subject is between some regular cat and Leafpool. That works with the general texture and theme of the drawing to create an ambiguity that matches the subject and the overall artwork. It is also interesting how that vertical figure on the right appears to be a fireplace, though the question is not totally resolved. And the object that the cat, let's say, Leafpool stands on may be some kind of piano or pedestal or half-wall divider in the room. Again, the lack of clear definition works as a positive way to encourage the use of imagination in defining the room. That also helps with the possible bookcase on the left and door in the middle.

The light source in the middle appears to be a flashlight or open window or door from where the viewer is standing. This input of light helps to define the piece, though it clashes with the darkness and uncertainty previously shown. This dynamic contrast is best shown by Leafpool's expression.

What are you doing bringing light into my scene? It was dark, but now you are here, in my room, you human. Leafpool scowls as the light outlines his fur at the border between contrasting themes in this artwork.
