I like it.
For the first three days that the snake occupied my studio table —and I mean it REALLY occupied it— I sneaked around trying to find a way to approach the thing that didn't leave me feeling intimidated.
This piece is about 4 times the usual size I generally work with, and even Bob, the studio cat, sidestepped it with sidelong glances.
And there was that design change issue to deal with. I decided after some experimentation on paper that the tire marks would look more genuine and be truer to the flavor of the original if I stayed with white on black.
At the end of Day 31, I had sketched in the dark area, cut a bunch of sponges into rhombic shapes (which incidentally, I lifted directly off a tire) and completed the first go 'round.
