the boy and his fox

So this is what I've been working on for the past few days.

A moment piece for my tree boy character. Wouldn't it be cool to play fetch with your pet fox in some forest?

I'm really loving this Cintiq, btw. If you were ever thinking about getting one but felt like it just costs too much, the investment is worth it. 

from the land of the trees

More work based off the short story by Barry Yourgrau, "Garden". This is the boy from the family my butterfly girl visits in the land of the trees. The original story is very vague and doesn't mention anything about what the girl or the boy look like or even where they are from. I just wanted to make something magical.

This is my interpretation:
A boy from a lineage of trees - he is one with nature and is very carefree. He lives with his parents in a house embedded in a large tree. He has no idea who is visiting, but even if he did, he wouldn't change anything he does in his day to day life.
