Sea Otter Snacktimeby *xfkirsten

Traditional Art / Drawings / Animals

Revised this one a bit, and I think messing with it any more would be too much. So... voila! It's snacktime for a sea otter! This one is based off a photo I took while working at the Point Defiance Zoo.

As I'm always striving to improve, all comments, feedback, and constructive criticism is greatly appreciated!

So adorable! I love the Point Defiance sea otters.

*xfkirsten Jan 31, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

Thanks! They really are fantastic animals!

(I think this was Kenai in the original photo...)

Neat.
I think Homer is the otter in my icon.
And they now have 5 female otters, two of them are youngsters and are a total riot!

I really need to get back there and visit - it's been too long!

Aww, this is the cutest thing I've seen all day. Gorgeous work! I really like how you've made the fur look wet and everything. Lovely!

Thank you! The wet fur was what I was most afraid of... but it's really not so bad if you do it carefully. The water, now that part was hard for me. The simplest things!
