Uplift by KatieHofgard

Full digital illustration commission for a client's Grandmother as a gift for Christmas! I really loved this concept, and I had a to of fun painting it too. Playing with light is starting to get really fun! I learned some new stuff working on this, and also didn't take as many hours as I thought I would.

This is really beautiful and so well-done! I think one of my favorite things is that the fox's eyes are the same color as the moths, though. XD

The lighting is fantastic. <3

This has really wonderful attention to detail, and the lighting is just great. The fur texture looks like it took a lot of time to reach that detail level, but it's definitely impressive.
