Have a very vibrant raccoon! I had a mighty urge to paint a trash panda, and there was no one around to stop me. I really enjoyed painting the sharp, coarse fur on the face, and am very happy with the loose fur texture on the body. Striking a balance between sharp and fuzzy details is one of my biggest struggles, but I feel happy with how it turned out on this piece.
There are two versions of this little guy, because I couldn’t decide what to do with the negative space in the background. Do you prefer the purple or natural wood background best?
