Description
An experiment.
My hubby bought me a small box of Nupastels, so I painted a hyena to play with mixed media ideas. I over-worked this, but that is ok. Sketch only took about 20 minutes, but I don't think I recorded quite enough anatomical information. I learned a bit more about the best way to approach my traditional pieces, though, and learning is the important part. Eventually, I'll find the happy medium between including too much detail and not enough in my pre-painting sketches.
Also, I love the shapes hyena figures make. :3
Watercolor, pastel, pen, and gouache on 90lb. watercolor paper (avoid 90lb. paper if you can -- I hope to try 140lb. soon).

Absolutely beautiful. You've stylised the animal without compromising its anatomy. Fantastic.
