A heron-like creature greets yo at this place in your journey. Before proceeding, he has a question for you. Choose your next words carefully, for he decides who continues onward, and who finds themselves awake in their bed with a dream of somewhere else rapidly fading from memory...
Finished in 1 day and 1 hour. I began this way back while I was still working on the Spring Opossum, but, due major developments in life, I haven't had much time to work on my art, so my productivity has slowed to a crawl. Now that I have settled into the new routine, hopefully, I will become increasingly productive.
This picture is also distinguished from other pictures in that I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted from the start, and also in that it is the first time I really tried to limit my color palette.
However, I won't lie, there was a lot of discovery in this picture, and I am mostly happy with how it came out.
I am even happier I can finally move on to other drawings.
