A little portrait for a friend - and also an experiment in dry brush textures! I was curious to see what I could do without any blending.

My paintings often go through a lot of major changes! Here I ultimately swapped out the placeholder background for tree shapes, and dropped some hours into paw/hand that didn't make the final cut. Always make sure you have the most up-to-date character references. ;3
