The Great Outdoors

I just entered an illustration contest, this time through one of my favorite magazines – Uppercase. The magazine has paired up with They Draw to run a contest where the theme is “The Great Outdoors”. I decided to do an early morning scene with a group of white deer – which actually do occur in nature sometimes. Winners get featured in the magazine and also They Draw’s gallery. Fun to draw – wish me luck!
