New Teeth

So I made a few changes-new teeth on the whale! A much needed tweak in my opinion, plus I added the girl in the stomach of the whale. I'm really liking the overall look of the canvas, & have only a few decisions left until it's done!
Again my decision, or really the lack there of, has circled back to where to place the text, which text to use, & how to create the text. It's a never ending battle, but one I look forward to every time I start a new project. :)

Progress

I've made a little bit of progress on my latest piece of work w/ the whale! I finished the body of the whale-still a few tweaks to go-& got the background pretty much done. I love the how the background is turning out! It's a mix of watercolor, oil pastels, & pastels mixed w/ water. I may add some ink into it too-haven't decided yet. I feel like it's a little too 2D & it's not incorporating with the 3D qualities of the whale very well.

Like I said I have the construction of the whale body done, but I'm not too sure about how the teeth & the eye look. Definitly a few areas that I'm a little stumped on...hmmmm


Here's another pic to show the details of the sky. I really love how liquidy & flowy it's looking. Woohoo! :D
