Description
A picture I did for a local art contest. The theme was "Commotion", and what can make more commotion than my cat in the middle of a flock of sparrows? XDI really like how it came out 8D
The characters are colored pencil and inking pen, and the bg is watercolor c:
Hope you like C8

I really appreciate how you used the actual plumage colourations on the House Sparrows-- that's something that most artists don't take the time to consider. Very nice job on the cat too!

They seriously have the best art supplies ever!
And this picture's colors weren't even touched up in PS, this is exactly how they turned out on the camera C8

Lol watercolors are hard to work with when trying to make something look solid, so I just use them for bgs c:

Oooh, I love this so much <3
I was actually thinking of doinging a watercolour background and coloured pencil characters as a picture to sell at that festival I might be participating in. I suck at drawing animals in watercolour so might as well do backgrounds ^^
Great work!

Thanks! They turn out so good when you use colored pencil characters on a watercolor bg! It really makes the characters pop and gives the whole picture a 3D-ish look! I bet it would look awesome with your style C8
