My Detailed Deer Illustration Took Me Two Weeks To Finish, And Here’s The Result

267

ADVERTISEMENT

I wanted to share something large I’ve been working on, and maybe get a little feedback?

I spent two weeks on this illustration and I’m intending it to be the first in series on drawings dealing with animal cognition and loss.

    I’ve never seen a less amused animal, haha

    Oh deer…

    Documenting work

    My partner is a champ photographer, so she helps me document my work. Nothing beats a good image of your work.

    Grass. The devil is in the details

    Getting ready to shoot and share! Documenting work at this size is a whole new animal

    Finished piece H88″xW42″

    This is where it’s at now… I think the next in the series will be the same size, but with more action.

    Help from my bestie

    Excellent piece of art! As a fellow artist I understand how much time and effort this one took - two weeks of time is really fast for such a big and detailed piece!

    Hahaha, it was a bit rushed, I had to get it done for a magazine thing and well... procrastination and all that.

    Coming from an artist, I could never have the patience for these details, this is so cool. And this deer isn't playing...

    Cet oeuvre me rend super triste.... J'ai l'impression que le cerf me regarde tristement en me faisant comprendre que c'est notre faute s'il est mort Ce n'est peut être pas si profond le msg qui voulait être passé mais en tout cas bon travail pour que l'on ressente quelque chose en regardant ce travail 👍

    Amazing work. But so many questions. Is that a bouquet of flowers growing from the one on the ground? Is the one one the ground another deer or another animal? Is this depicting loss or victory for the buck? Are the birds diving or falling? I get so many different stories from this piece.

    Beautiful art work! But standing on a rotating chair is somewhat dangerous. Be careful.
