Watercolor is so hard for me, and this turned out well--simple and soft.

AND MAN, I had a thing for albinos.

NAWW HE WUVS HIS DOGGIE SO MUCH!! I love that the dog is smiling back (because dogs DO smile!) and the. OMG, the perspective colouring of the background. I am addicted to that style, and I'm so admiring that you did it!!

Ooo, I love the lining you did with the ink! The background is very pretty, too!

I don't know anything about this fandom, but this is simply lovely! I can easily see this in an illustrated book.

Gorgeous! I don't know the fandom at all, but I'm always envious of people who can draw outdoor scenes and make them actually look real. And awesome job on the windbreaker and the dog.

Aw, this is just lovely. I love the calm mood of the piece . . . the relaxed stance of the boy, and the calm, pleasant countryside stretching away in the background. Really wonderful composition! The coloring is also rather beautiful.

Considering the tragic and traumatic way they are parted, this brought tears to my eyes to see them just quietly enjoying each other in hapier days out on the beautiful Welsh hills, a boy and his dog instead of the looming shadows of their giant iconic identities. So perfectly apt both for the occasion of Christmas and the peace and simplcity of the moment. Thanks!! Very nice fluid work with the watercolor.

Very nice! I love the soft colors in this one and the sense of peace you get. Awww. :)

What a lovely scene! I'm captivated by the way they're looking at each other.

I'm totally charmed by the landscape, and the figures are very nice as well. I like the way their gazes seem to really meet, the way animals do fix on your eyes irl.
