I really love your wolf paintings so much! A side thing, wolves are really hard to paint because the fur is hard to paint. Youre use of lighting in this is just amazing. I think the blurring of light in the background and the way you made the light hit the rim of the wolf is really well done. This wolf looks like hte opposite of the white wolf you painted. White wolf had a cherry tree and soft greys and pinks. This wolf looks fierce and strong willed because of the boldness of all the colors. Also, good work on choosing a color that make the black color fur pop out!
