In case anyone noticed, I decided to put this in Mixed Media instead of the usual traditional. I've decided it's not worth it to explain myself every single time I get asked "why is this in Traditional?" even though I say how I made it in the Artist's Comments. Expect all future submissions to be Mixed Media.

I'm not really sure whether I like this picture or not yet. So far, it ranks as "okay" in my book.

With this picture, I wanted it to have a macro-ish feel to it. That is, the background being slightly out of focus, but the caterpillars being in full focus.

I love caterpillars; they're so adorable (as long as they're not nesting in the tree in front of my bedroom!). These two are playing together; the big one's giving the little one a piggyback.

For critiquers; I purposely do not shade. I don't shade on any of my art; I like the way flat coloring looks more.

I like how you laid out the picture. It keeps my eyes wandering around. I also like your balance of light/med/ dark tone.
