Hi there! I'm Snow! I'm a Christian artist!

Songs you should give a try:
Do Something / Broken Things - Matthew West
Bleed The Same - Mandisa
No Matter What - Ryan Stevenson
The Breakup Song - Francesca Battistelli
Confidence - Sanctus Real
Multiplied / Testify - NeedToBreathe
Miracle / Call It Grace - Unspoken
(My Faves are Multiplied, Bleed the Same, and Broken Things)

I'm open to questions or someone needing help. I'll try my best.
If I can't answer your question or help, I'll point you to someone who can.

~Have a blessed day~

Hey, here to give some tips. Though your art is clearly better than mine, you can improve on a few things.
1. the fur. The fur needs to have a better flow to it, it is a bit inconsistent and seems unnatural to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fbRQcO4UKY might be helpful for hair and fur.
2. Shading. Use references and not just black shadows ^^

other than that you seem fine. ^^

Wow, this is really lovely
It's absolutely stunning, to me.
But if I had to give out some criticism, I would tell you to use cell shading, rather than the (airbrush?) tool, it matches your style better

I use the burn/dodge tools for shading, but you're right.
Thank you for the criticism, it really does help! :D

Gorgeous.
The pupil of the eye is positioned so it looks like she's looking at me rather than the moth

Thank you!
Yeah, sorry about that, Im still trying to get the hang of the way cats eyes go when looking at things.

The way cats eyes work is so interesting!
