I finally got a little time last year to expend more effort on an artwork and this is what came out. It's acrylic on 20 by 16 hardboard and has already found a home via the Anthrocon art show

Some very powerful imagery here. I absolutely love what you did -- from the palette used to the expression to the very organic and perfect shapes for both snow and tree formed into characters that are, yet are not.
If I would have been at the art show, I'd have been a strong bidder on this piece. I hope you'll offer prints of it in its original size.

I'm always excited to see you return to the "burning under fur" motifs that you began with "Burn For You" (https://www.furaffinity.net/view/12472159/), probably my favorite conceptual piece of all time from you.
Also, I really like your brushwork along the top of the upper wolf's back, the way you've presented that tree-merging effect is both eerie, unsettling, and beautiful.
Most of all, I feel as if this piece is starting to finally run into the limitations of acrylic paint on hardboard as a physical medium; I think that executing this piece as oil on canvas would have given you more leeway in the finer details, particularly around the larger wolf's ribs and torso, and the bark of the trunk he's emerging from.
All in all, this is a damn fine piece, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work this year. :)
