The Boy and the Rabbit Plant

Here is a wee experiment. Firstly I'm keen to play with my characters a little. How I mainly draw people isn't working quite how I want in some of the pictures I've done lately, i think due to the different media I've been working with. The result is this boy, a slightly more realistic depiction. Its not a complete departure from my style and there was a point a few years ago where I'd draw people like this alot. I like him. The second part of the experiment is the use of a texture within the picture, in this case a wood texture. Ive not spent much time integrating it into the image but I think its going to be something worth playing with.
