Fat Unicorns RULE!


So, over the course of my college years, I’ve promised a few friends that I would create some artwork for them. Last December (yeah I know, a LONG time ago), I promised my friends Cora and Jane, that I would do a painting of them as vikings riding the back of a fat unicorn (kind of a homage to that classic Bugs and Elmer cartoon). AND HERE IT IS!!! And it turned out pretty ridiculous what with the volcanes AND the lightning. Ha! It was fun. Taught myself some new coloring tricks in Photoshop along the way. Now onto even CRAZIER pieces!!! Any suggestions? Anyone?

I'm digging those colors alot, very Brittney Lee-esque. The lighting too is really nice.

Oh my god. That fat horse in that cartoon was my absolute FAVORITE when I was a kid. This is amazing. Absolutely awesome.

Thanks guys! Glad you like it! And yes, definitely took some inspiration from Brittney Lee for this one. I really wanted to push the saturation of colors.
