A private commission for the winner of my first furbid auction of his lynx character K'thara.

This piece was the culmination of about 2 weeks of work. I ran into a roadblock with the background when the character herself was finished. I went through at least 3 different base background before coming to this one. And yet even with the background present, the piece was still lacking something. I left it for a few days and came back to it last night determined to finish so as not to keep the buyer waiting. Finally after a few hours of plinking around with different ideas, the obvious struck me; its autumn, leaves fall in autumn. Well the placement of each individual leaf was plotted out with precision so as not to distract from the main subject, the character. The leaves are blurred so as to draw attention to her, sort of as if a photo was taken and the focu being placed squarely on her.

All in all this was a pleasure of a piece to work on and in the end I am happy with it. It finally felt 'finished'. I only hope the buyer truly and wholeheartedly likes it.
