Since I penciled this on the same page as the beach alicorn picture, sure, what the hell! Let's do the "Doop, doop," thing again!

I've started slowly working my way through my recent random sketch pages. FIGURE I MAY AS WELL FINISH SOME OF THEM. It's good for practice on color, paint technique, and backgrounds. THINGS I HAVE SOMEWHAT NEGLECTED. Anyway, alicorn by a creek. The background for this one's based off a photo I took, this time, so that's neat! Tried different things--a sorta simplified not-simple-at-all background (the rocks are all painted with three colors, did a quick trick to do some of the subtle reflections in the water, the bushes are simple pointalism of about five colors) basically, I did it mostly of simple solid colors, then tossed on a few layers to give it a bit of depth and atmospheric perspective. And then painted the shading on the unicorn the same way as in the beach picture. I dunno. MAYBE IT'S TOO STARK A CONTRAST, OR MAYBE IT WORKS, with the stylized but softly shaded alicorn and the hard-shaded background elements. I DUNNO. Just trying out different things. PRACTICE, WHOO!
