You've succeeded in creating a real feeling of cold and... loneliness, if that makes sense. In my mind I get the sense that it's the middle of winter, and the Shack is missing its usual summer stream of customers, and maybe even Dipper and Mabel and the energy of youth and wonder they bring. But the lights are still on, meaning it would more than welcome a surprise visitor or two, and give them shelter from the cold night and dark forest...



Anyway, I loved that your art has made me feel so much, and inspired my muse to create a little background story. I love being inspired! Have no worries about your talent - you have it in spades. Excellent work!
