Pastel Thunder Whale

Part of a project for my illustration class. When I first finished it, I thought I looked terrible and left the table frustrated. But the next time I passed, I noticed that it looked great if you take a few steps back.

The picture really doesn't do it justice. I just pops off that page in person. And I have no idea how I managed that


Done in pastels and micron pen.
(Yeah I can know a few traditional mediums, but I'm still better at the digital stuff.)
