Its Hard out here for a pimp erhhhhh i mean moose.

Its Hard out here for a pimp erhhhhh i mean moose.
I Made this painting for a buddy, its a fun way to use left over canvas or if you want to paint over a canvas with a darker colour instead of wasting the time and the white paint to re-blank a painted canvas

SO I PRESENT TO YOU THE WORKING MOOSE.

By using this image of a cartoon moose, i wanted to create something more edgy/pop artsy then the endless array of cute cartoon moose you find on google image. 

Attach is a pic i used for inspiration. I observed the general characteristics of a cartoon moose, the rounding of the mouth nose and then free handed the rest. 

This is a great exercise to do some free hand on a darker canvas with no repercussions, make a mistake paint it over.


Things you Need:

-Canvas
-Green arcylic paint
-White Paint Pens

Step by Step:

- Paint canvas with the dark forest green
- Once canvas dries use a pencil and draw your moose freehand make sure to press hard with the pencil so you can visibly see your outline.
- once you like your outline go over it with the white paint pen
- add certain features to the moose you would like
(my friend wears aviators and smokes a lot so i added that to my moose for some added relatable characteristics hahaha)

You can use any animal or add any feature to your painting, just make sure he or she looks badass ;)
