Here is this year's christmas card design for my family, featuring Wolfy! (of course) I had a general idea of what I wanted to do, but my mom basically told me what she wanted to see specifically in this piece. I tried to work this from an illustrator's standpoint, going through thumbnails and colour studies and whatnot... I think it turned out well overall. I did struggle with making it look like he was looking out a window without showing the window frame itself, but I don't think I could have "zoomed in" as much as my mom wanted if I showed the window frame.
I put more effort into this christmas card design because I wanted to show off my art skills to my family.
ALSO (the reason I put a lot of effort into this)....
I'm going to donate the framed original to Eskie rescuers United: [link] if they will take it. If not, I'm going to try and sell it myself and donate the proceeds to them directly.

That's amazing, I think it is really sweet of you to do your own Christmas cards for your family, or that they even ask. I can see al the effort you put into this it is amazing like beautiful, and it makes me fell all warm and fuzzy. It sort of looks like wolfy is just jumping in the air and not leaning on a window, only because I'm so use to seeing reflections on the window when I look at photographs like this, but I can see why you would not do it if you didn't want the reflection taking the attention away from wolfy. This is so awesome, I love it and I bet your family did too.

Very nice card design! If I had your skill, I'd want to show it off too :3 I hope they take the donation, though I don't see why they wouldn't want to!
