This is wonderful! The anatomy looks just fine to me, and the colours are just awesome. Although brown and blue are completely different colours, they're not contrasting each other since they're both warm in this case. The warm blue and the cool blue-greens also go very well together, and the persistent use of blue gives this piece a very nice, even mood throughout.

The shading on the wolf is very nice, but I think he should have a bit of a shadow in the snow if there's enough of a light source to give him his own shadows (Gah, don't know the proper terminology, hope I'm getting it right). Also, I really like the wolf's eye. It stands out very nicely since it's a much lighter shade of blue than the snow and the night sky.

ahhh,
thank you so much for your critique- I can see that you put a lot of thought into it!

It certainly is a refresher from the constant 'ANATOMY ANATOMY ANATOMY'
which I usually get.

I love how you focused on the coloring and the mood, it gives me an idea of how I am doing with the composition of my work!
Thank you!

No problem. Most people don't take the time to read the artist's descriptions, I do, especially if I'm doing a critique

Wow, wow, woooowww... Brown and indigo mixed with a hint of yellow/green has never worked this well! I somehow get a Native American feeling of this one, astonishing!
