I was off in the crazy BC wilderness most of the weekend, and felt super inspired to do a very painterly piece. I usually avoid this style, but I really enjoyed it! I'm super excited to draw a dire (I have been dying for the chance!) And this guy seems just amazing 8D I'm so inlove with him <3 It has been a really green fall this year. I was talking to a family member who lives up in the Yukon, and she mentioned that despite the snow, the grass is still oddly green - I thought I'd reflect that in it
