I have mentioned the novel I am working on many times, now I am starting to add some art to keep me connected to the story. My main character communicates telepathically with a wolf. I have been wanting to try drawing one. I hadn't been successful up to this point. I found a great picture online and thought I would give it a go. This is on mixed media paper using prismacolor colored pencils. This could be way darker than it is and I will continue to work on it. Colored pencils is all about layering the colors and it takes a long time.
Posting for Paint Party Friday Check them out here.
Love your wolf. They are such interesting totems. colored pencils are a lot of work but so worth it in the end. Lovely.

I love your wolf. Very wolf life. I don't know what facial features you want to I do think you caught the essence of the creature.
ReplyDeleteI love the wolf. He looks a bit scary to me. Your work with the colored pencils looks great.
ReplyDeleteWEll i think you have a great start on the wolf. I bought a scratch pad at a craft store a while ago and it was a picture of wolf. So its black with silver foil underneath and then you follow the lines and scratch away the black to reveal the silver. ANYWAY...what i'm try to say, although it seems to be taking me a long time to get there is....... If you can find one of those scratch pads of the wolf i think it shows a wonderful clear example of how the hair should lay and might help you out......Whew! Hope that made sense.. :) Hugs! deb
