Popularity

The deer is the most favourite animal , and its popularity is ever increasing. The reason for this popularity is because of the lovely features and the most beautiful big brown eyes in the world.

Lesson

“Each has its lesson; for our dreams in sooth,

 come they in shape of demons,

 gods, or elves,

 are allegories with deep hearts of truth

 that tell us solemn secrets of ourselves.”

                                                       Henry Timrod

This is a painting I did voor Illustration Friday.

I used acrylic paint and I photographed every stage of the painting.
So it 's kind of a tutorial or lesson if you like.
