Description

Look look, I still do traditional! Doing this felt good, I tell ya. Because of the increased brush pressure it's generally harder for my arms, though, which is one big reason why I do so much digital work lately (apart from general practice).

Anyway, kenket inspired me to try working with fluid acrylics, and so far I LOVE them. I already ordered another batch of colors to complete my palette, despite the cost. They're much easier to work with than the heavy body acrylics, so I'll most likely stay with this kind of paint (at least regarding acrylics).
The painting itself is also very much inspired by kenket's work. There will be more stuff like this in the future as I continue exploring both the paint and kenket's way of painting. I'm struggling to get a bit more looseness and better lighting in my paintings, that's why I adore her work so much and why I want to learn what I can from it.

I forgot the whiskers above the eyes. :O The painting could also use a few subtle grasses.
Does anybody else tend to forget to paint things? This happens frequently to me.
