Artist's Comments

Acrylic on Canvas board. I believe the piece is 17 inches by 11 or so. I always loved the way trees can cast spotted shadows on things, especially on animal pelts. It simply amazed me how many color variations can be made by the light. I guess now I know why monet painted the same image over and over simply in varying light. Anyway this started out as a mere experiment to see if I could get the effect of spotted light. I think it worked rather well though I am unhappy with the ground because I ran out of the right brown mid painting and had to mix.

Holy. I am. In awe. This is amazing, -stares-

I'm glad I found you on dA, since I haven't been around the archive much. I really should redo that picture of Tufani for our art trade, ^^;

But this is...perfect.
