In between hashing out composition and values for some new commission projects, I looked back a bit to my very first commission project back in 2015--where the kind, sweet Droc Guidera had confidence in this bird to entrust with designing a character ref. Droc has been a wonderful source of encouragement ever since, along with tackling more of their characters along the way to boot--and looking back to that original piece and how far I've come since then, I wanted to surprise them with an update portrait. So, a straightforward little piece of a cutie's portrait to stretch my wings a little before diving in on some pretty ambitious commission projects next! I hope you enjoy them too!
