Perhaps you’ve heard of Pumpkin Spice but have you seen “The Pumpkin Mice?”
This picture stars three mice, deer mice in particular, in the pumpkin patch during a foggy evening. The pumpkin is still just a tad green and so are the vines, but they’re still inspecting to see when harvest time will be.
I used Adobe Photoshop CC with a Wacom Cintiq 13HD and its Pro Pen to paint with a variety of brushes including my own, standard Photoshop brushes. and several by Aaron Blaise over at https://creatureartteacher.com/.
Today was a rainy autumn day and World Pumpkin Day besides, so I thought to have a bit of fun and at long last add some color to one of the illustrations from my first published coloring book, “Many Meetings A Nature’s Curiosities Coloring Collection” which is available in two print editions (Right-handed and Left-handed) as well as printable digital download.
