I think this is a very nice drawing. I appreciate the time it takes to create an image in the pointalistic style. Nice proportions and design in your drawing. Looks good.

Comment from Jazzle


I'm rating this 5 because:
This is such a skilled and intricate work. I love the shadow that comes across the bears face. And the glint in his eye looks good. I like the shape of the composition.. the way you've introduced contours into it.
I like the way the smaller bears are nestled under the chin of the adult bear- it really drives home the nurturing aspect of the picture.
The bear in the bottom right seeming to walk towards the viewer is a nice touch- I like the dark shadowing on his paws- he stands out clearly and gives us a nice profile image.
Excellent work.

Comment from sarnewfie


nice job LVO i find the nose a bit pointy but that could be a youngster, nice placement of the bears in this scene and well done on the dot to dot!

Comment from sjwartist


Now this I like. You show a unique style that can't be mistaken as your own. I enjoy the fact that you sketched a collage of all different poses in a pointillism style. It takes so long and is sometimes hard to get the contrast needed. Perfectly done here.
