I have a lot of impressions from my trip to Florida and wolves are one of them. Particularly, this arctic wolf we saw in a wildlife refuge on Merritt Island. So, that mixed with my love for Spirited Away turned into this...

O.o Lovely. I love wolves. So wonderful! ^__^
I love this. Here's why, LOL.. The layering is really smooth and gives not only a thorough sense of depth, but also provides a focal point onto the subject matter. I especially like the gentle intrusion of the person to the left. That detail alone takes the painting to another level making it feel more special, like we as viewers are intruding on a private space and something very magical. The heavenly glow around the wolf is very striking and obviously was a careful forethought.

The only criticism I have is to suggest that you put more detail into the face. and most especially the eyes. The body of the wolf is fine and sleek, but with wolves the face is it's everything. I would love to see the eyes be brighter as well.

Love this!!

What do you call a dog with no legs? Who cares.. He's still not coming.
It's gorgeous! Like right out of a storybook! <333333

*HUGGLES* And I love you! Hehe! :D
Thank you, sweetie!! You've probably been there... it's that little alligator place on Merritt Island that's actually shaped like a giant alligator... oh, durrr, that's what it's called: World's Largest Alligator. Haha, so, yeah... that's where the wolf was. ^_^
I.... I.... *weeps* What a wonderful critique!!! *hugs you* I'm saving it so I can read it later and feel good. Thank you so much for taking the time to write out your thoughts - I really appreciate it! I love how clearly you've stated everything... *nods and agrees* Yes, I absolutely agree about adding more detail to the wolf's face. I'll try to later.

Thank you!!!!! :heart:
Yeah, funny story... I've never even heard of it! But I'm glad you had such a good time!

Haha, thanks! And I'm glad I didn't get eated. There were 200+ lollergators stuffed in one a tiny creek! We were practically paddling through lollergator piles, lol.
Wolves in Florida? haha That, I did not expect.
Beautiful~ I love the contraste and the focus you bring onto the wolf.
God, this is just haunting. She just glows.
It's amazing, your scratchy style transfers perfectly to flora! All the plants and trees are beautiful, the forest you've created is so enchanting! The air looks like honey, I can almost taste it's sweetness.
Sensual and ambient. Miss, this is a really strong piece for you. I'd LOVE to see more like this! How exciting!
