Pretty much inspired by those illustrations by James Gurney in all the Dinotopia books.

Took me about 2.5 hours

Near perfect photo-realistic lighting.  I also really like how the rather simple brush strokes add just the right texture for the eye to feed on.  Nice job.

James Gurney's work is so inspirational. I have the privilege of owning one of his books, Color and Light, and would love to get my hands on his Imaginative Realism. This is a very lovely piece, and from the look of your gallery, you have a wonderful way with light. Awesome work!
