Silence of Winter by @Phantasmagoria (Adrienne B. D'Agostino)
Drawn this past summer when, due to an injury, I was unable to participate in the first guard camp of the summer. I still had to come, so I was left sitting around for ten hours a day for a whole week with little to amuse me. I started bringing my sketchbook, and... well, I'm sure you can figure out the rest. I think I drew about seven or eight pictures during that time. And that was quite an accomplishment given that the injured apendage was my right hand (middle finger, to be exact, lol), and I am right handed. : ) Anyway, this is one of those products of boredom. I really like the tree and the grass in the foreground. And the child's expression just looks so forlorn.. sigh.
He's a very cute character, and I am impressed with the background. This picture is even more impressive thinking you did it with a hand injury! I love his forlorn expression, but the 'cattails?' in the front of the pic make it seem less wintery. So that is slightly confusing.
