Pet Portraits

[rusti_knight]

So, sometime in the new year, I want to open up for pet portrait commissions. Except, I don't want to just copy a photo like so many do. I have seen some really great artistic stuff pop up once in a while and that's what I want to take a stab at. Be it creative cropping, a cartoon twist, something based on a personality, whatever. Even though I'd need a photo reference, my aim is not to just copy it.

Obviously I will be practicing with my own critters, but I thought I'd do a little something special since it's December and all and do a drawing for one with an animal I don't know.

Rules are: One animal, 9x12 bristol or illustration board in a medium of my choice (probably colored pencil, but I've been known to paint). It won't be done for Christmas! That much I can promise.

It's just one spot, and I'm going to do it by drawing a name randomly. Leave a comment if you're interested!

ETA: You can comment here, or on my Steel Wolf facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/steelwolfgraphics (oh, yes, and the drawing is for a FREE one, sorry I didn't specify completely!)

I like this idea! I would like to submit my name. :)

Consider yourself submitted. :)

This is me, submitting my name! Also, do you want me to pass this around or would you rather wait until you've practiced up a bit?

You can pass it around if you want. I'll unlock it. If someone is interested in a commission, I'm always willing to discuss it with them.
