[Out of Place]
A small drawing project that went in an odd direction. Another 'modern elf', this one seems to have gotten herself a little lost.
As I've mentioned before, I'm often lazy about backgrounds. This time I decided to capitalise on that laziness by going in a more stylised, slightly 'pop art' direction.
I don't know. Is this a good approach, or should I just learn to draw backgrounds properly?

@ravanon@mastodon.scot background is perfect as is - draws attention to the figure instead of itself. extra nice work on the clothing/folds/texture!

@ravanon@mastodon.scot @doombloomart@mastoart.social I like it. However, that should not keep you from learning to draw backgrounds :-)

@ravanon@mastodon.scot I love the stylized background. It fits very well to the detailed character artwork.

@ravanon@mastodon.scot I think the background works. For some reason it’s giving me a millennium era vibe.
