Eddie paints a happy portrait (commissioned art)

This is a commissioned work by chrispco (CJ Paulsen of 'Precocious' webcomic fame!) I thought y'all might like to see it in its final matted and framed glory. Nice, huh?

NOTE: The colors in this photograph of a colored-pencil work are noticeably washed out; the colors are -MUCH- prettier and richer when seen in person!

When the framing lady first pulled this frame out my first thought was that it was tooo fancy and busy for a colored pencil sketch. It looks great! My other best choice was a much simpler, medium brown frame. I liked this one better.

My idea for this scene was inspired by this 'Copper Road' strip:

The fox on the left is my own Eddie Ferric.
The Siamese cat is Kaitlyn Hu from Chrispy's webcomic: 'Precocious' AND from his 'Copper Road' spin-off. You can see it at www.precociouscomic.com
Look for the past 'Copper Road' strips at the right in the 'Precocious' archive.
