Thank you Ricardo for sharing your process with us. Your work is very inspiring.
Here is my illustration of a water buffalo in some lake, among water lilies. It is based on a real event. I wanted a smoother result, with less pencil marks, I guess the type of paper I used did not help with that.
The hatching on the buffalo is to imitate their wrinkly skin. Though I created reflections, I was not too worried about getting a realistic effect.
Many thanks

Teacher PlusThank you for sharing your work with us and thank you for taking the time to take the class.
I like your work¡. As you say you are not worried about getting things realistic and I like that your style is there which makes things more charming.
I love the buffalo and its big eye, very particular. I also like the lilies and I feel the composition is good. The graphite is well used and there is nice respect for the way you applied it taking care of where to put lights and shadows. Overall, I think all things are working together beautifully, which at the end is the idea.
I think my only but will be the picture you took. I think is a little blurry or pixelated and doesn't allow me to see your work in great detail.
Well done, congratulations on your work, and thanks again for taking the time to do this class with such commitment.
