Sylvianne's Low Lantern Rest
🕑 Added 2018-02-05 19:07:03 +0000 UTC A sketch for Sylvian who was last month's Patron on the monthly sketch list. I found it amusing that January was unofficially a 'draw birds' month and the random name-draw name program picked someone who, in fact, wanted me to draw a bird!I still love drawing forest/outdoor scenes, this one at a rest-spot lit by small lanterns hanging on the low curls of strange trees. Its one of those pictures where I can imagine the character just wanting to escape from it all and re-connect with the world.
And feathers.
So many feathers.
Much thanks to Sylvian for permission to post this character here!

Also have to wonder, who maintains those lanterns? Keep them lit and going? Clears the brush, etc.

You did a wonderful job on the feathers too. And the bark on the trees and the details of the lanterns. Not to mention the muscles and posture. Very well done. Once a year, I work at a festival that has a midnight luminary walk. We don't hang up lanterns like this, but there are lights and it's in a forest. It's really something special. I wish we had trees with branches like that though. would make hanging those lights a lot easier. ^_^ I love how you added a little bit of background to it as well. Thank you for posting.
