TAD Boots

Rain’s challenge this Thursday is “Boots”. I found an adorable image to model my sketch off.  Here it is!

I added a bit more personality in each mouse’s face. The expressions tell a story. Mama is worried because one of her babies seems distressed whereas the other three are having loads of fun.

 

I used my Brushstrokes app to recreate my sketch. The program loses some of the small details but I love the texture of the image.

 

When I finish an art piece sometimes it doesn’t sit right with me.  That’s what happened when I began composing this post.  I felt my drawing need more of a backdrop.  In the final (I promise) revision I place the playful mice inside a closet. 

 

Drawing the hanging clothes and shoes was a bit tricky.  I used a dark grudge brush across to create a shadowy feeling like you’d imagine it would inside a closet.  No one wants mice in their closet but it’s okay in pictures. 🙂

Do you grow tire of seeing various reworks of the same art piece?  Let me know! 😉

 

 

 

That’s it for today, join me tomorrow for another edition of FFO!
