I am very happy with this painting.
I have not done a background in A LONG TIME, so it was a challenge. I think I did okay for just starting out!
I'm feeling terrible, in and out of unbearable pain, accompanied with a phlemy cough, and I was aching for a comforting character to make. I thought, what better character to make, than a deer!
So, I made this guy here, whom I am calling, Beetle. The name might not last, but he is inspired by the art style of James and the Giant Peach, and he kinda looks like a beetle, with his antenna antlers. I don't know what I would call him, if not Beetle, though.
I also wanted to paint a picture with him in it. I haven't just sat down and painted an entire scene, so I enjoyed this. It was oddly calming, despite how uh...subpar I am at it.
