Baby, it's cold outside...

Merry Christmas to a simply splendid person, the ever-gracious wetsammy, who truly deserves all the good things in 2021! (As do we all, really. All my love to my LJ flisties!)

Art created for spn-j2-xmas, and I couldn't help myself; I wax shmoopy over the holidays. I don't paint critters very often, so this was great fun! Based on wetsammy's prompt: "Coyote!Jared

Oh, Cris, even your animals are gorgeous! I love their blissfully content expressions - and how you gave them realistic expressions without resorting to over-anthropomorphism. I adore Jensen’s exposed fluffy belly, Jared’s perfectly doggy paw-pads, and the overall sense of love, warmth, and safety that fills the piece. The beautiful lighting of their den and gentle snowfall outside are lovely bonuses. FABULOUS artwork, you magician, you! ✨💖

(I’ll be a-knocking at your door for fur-drawing lessons!)

DEB, THANK YOU!! (And lemme tell you, I used the wrong digital brush for the fur so do not ask me for tips. But I'd gotten so far in, it was too late to switch brush shapes w/o having to re-do a bunch of stuff and of *course* was procrastinating...)

Geez, if you achieved those results with the “wrong” brush, they probably would’ve actually come to life and jumped right off the page with the “right” one ...

Aw, that is just lovely!

I truly adore your style. :D

[quickreaver]

Thanks eternally, lovely! Now that the show is wrapped, my goal in 2021 (and beyond) is to do art for fics that have stuck with me. Yesternight is one of those and I fully intend to gift you. SOMEDAY, lol! (But you know how I am...)

[tabaqui]

I would be absolutely over the moon. :D

[quickreaver]

Please don't hold your breath, but here's hoping!!! While I have you-and I'm sure I've asked before, but- is there anything in particular you'd like to see for the fic? A scene illustrated? Cover art? (I think I brainstormed a cover but I don't think I got very far, lol)
