Monsieur Olivet, just out for a stroll, discovers that Fall, indeed, is here.
Something new for me...trying out a technique that Amy had shown at the workshop regarding backgrounds. I think this is looking a little fire-stormy, though. I will keep working....
heheheh I just love the names that you come up with for your characters they always put a smile on my face tee hee!! Great background quite different to what you normally do but lovely!! It's always great to try new things and I just love those Autumn colours!!!
ReplyDeleteI like it very much! It really feels like fall... blustery. In answer to your question... I prefer to draw with the thinnest of thin that I can find... copics, pentels, paint brushes with just 1 or 2 hairs or bristles. If I can't find one I like at the moment. I cut everything off that I don't want and try it out. I love to experiment and discover the possibilities. I consider my blog to be a wonderful playground.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the mouse character....he is so cute!
ReplyDeletethank you so much! I love the fall colors on this one. I wish fall were actually here. It seems to be switching from summer to winter this year without skipping a beat.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Good Monsieur Olivet is dressed for the windy weather. Those kids in the classroom at the hand wash are so darned adorable.
ReplyDeleteWow, you've captured a vivid windy fall day! You can feel the wind hitting Monsieur Olivet, and his body posture is perfect as struggles not to get blown away with those leaves!
ReplyDeleteLovely fall colors!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! The details are fantastic and I love the movement of the wind!
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying these alot!
ReplyDeletevery sweet, love his face expression and the wind all around, nice color choice too!
ReplyDeleteI think there is a lot of great motion here and the colors look like fall--not fire to me.
ReplyDeletethis is lovely and the little mouse is so cute, the expression on his face is perfect, I have been doing that exact face here for the past few days, indeed chilly windy fall really is here.
