Thank you bunches! Honestly, despite working boooth digitally and traditionally, I have to say I agree with you! You know, I don’t really have that great of a memory working on digital pieces but I remember the actual traditional pieces and the work and love I put into them.
 
This piece specifically I remember experimenting a lot with colors beforehand to give a warmer, more fire-esque or fall feeling to her colors.  
People giving traditional art love from time to time, like you, encourage me to continue making more and investing more time on these pieces. ♥️

Yay, real media!! Love to see artists posting art like this, there’s something special about pen, ink, pencil, and paint that digital can’t touch! Very nice work on the shading and the highlighting of her mane!

Beautiful work.
