Alone in Fear

At last this is done. I LOVE how this turned out.

This drawing is over a year in the making. Sometimes it takes me years to finish something but I eventually do it. I drew this when visiting my aunt in Georgia last June. One of the best vacations I have ever taken. I LOVE the woods up there and all the pretty creeks and rivers. I do feel very relaxed and peaceful when I am there. I wanted to show this by drawing Scary Fear at peace next to the sound of a babbling brook. But despite him being at peace you see his reflection that he's still and powerful and dangerous being even when he's happy and alone. Here is my ref if anyone wants to see what I was going for.

Nice one! Fear looks so happy and relaxed. I like your depiction of the water.

Thank you. He's definitely quite content. The water was something new for me. I've never used this technique. Not sure if I'll stick with it in a future drawing or not.

I fully expected to see little fishes in that water. It;s so clear! But I fully understand if you don't want to keep it in future drawings. I don't know how much work it was.
