Sad in a way, the character is fine today, although the sky is grey. This is a small study based on doodles done around 2013, it was completed on one sitting, about 45 minutes. I rarely paint for more than this at once, over the years I average about 20 minutes at a time. To make a big painting maybe takes 5 or 10 hours, so that runs up to 15-30 sessions of painting. I like to do small paintings sometimes because you get the result quickly. As it was done fast, the paint blurred together in places since it did not completely dry. The one thing I added that wasn't in the original doodle was the second arm that is in the background, it just needed to be there to fill the space under the head of the creature.
