Illo Friday "Quiet"

A pencil sketch from my Moleskine tweaked and colored in Photoshop. The original with all of the false starts is below. Don't ask me what that creature on the right is supposed to be. Looks a little like the love child of a ferret and a raccoon.

This little mouse is not cut out for the job of "church mouse".

it's better without the digital coloring. i really like some of the messed up mice/racoons. i'd like to see them colored with a wash of watercolor

Love child....looks more like hate child :) I disagree with Jeanette...I love the digital coloring. Did you use a mouse (ha!) to color it or a pen and wacom tablet?

Funny you should mention a wacom. I do use one for drawing, but I just used the mouse for coloring. I'm still more comfortable with the mouse.
