Tonia,
Such power in these beasts in how you brought them to life thru your art. Love grey contrasting skin tones... gives them a 3 dimeneional look and texture. Excellent!
Wonderful realism n movement! Great use of color n form n love the two heads together! Very Beautiful. Have a Good Day Tonia! ty4 stoppin by my portfl. I always appreciate it when another artist replys. Cheers!
This is really cool. I like how you used all diff colors in the acutal elephants themselves. It really works well with the sky. Lots of ppl wouldnt think to add so many dif colors, but it looks great!
Great work,Tonia!I am always in awe of your pastel skills!I see you are getting deeper details,and colors that show much Life:)It's fun to watch Artists grow!
