Impact


There is so much good with this piece that it needs to be said up front: whatever I critique is nit-picking at details.

The eye grabs me. Its texture is perfect, as is the highlight. It really makes the focal point. Likewise the texture of the fur is excellent, as are the gradation of colors. And the reflections? Excellent. This picture creates a depth of field similar to a well-taken photograph. That is an extremely hard effect to capture with dry media, and should not be overlooked. Values are great, as is the balance between light and dark.

The only thing I would critique, (and again, I am nit picking), is watch the "halo" effect around the squirrel's head. this happens with dry media because the strokes get shorter as we lay in color around an object. Perhaps the only reason I even notice it is because it is something I struggle with in my own colored pencil artwork. It is so subtle it may even be an intentional gradation in the out of focus background.

Again, excellent, excellent work.

Este dibujo se ve tan realista que lo confundí con una fotografía. Las texturas están muy bien logradas

nice textures...good use of colors and values, white in the front, to smooth green to dark green in the background to play up the squirrel's color and textures

Really well drawn

I love the detail on the fur, and the lighting, the mirror effect! The reflections in the eye are really cool And in traditional, too - I'd be happy to get half as detailed on my digital board

I'm just confused about the tail - it looks like there are two?
