Description

Second bookmark in my elemental bookmark series: Earth. My personal favourite, I just love earthy tones (I'm using it right now as my actual bookmark). The characters portrayed here all have earth as their dominant element, and even though their personalities vary greatly, they all share a few common traits: they are generally stubborn and strong-willed, and do not easily give up. Julius the stoat is a hyperactive little fellow, but does not let his small size get in the way of what he wants. Madeleine the stray cat is shy and insecure, but will never give up her quest of finding a loving home. Ludwig the lynx currently roams the wild without a solidly marked territory, but his personality is very practical and down-to-earth. A very realistic fellow, who prefers to think things through before acting (unlike Julius, who often rushes in head-first and often finds himself in trouble later on). Tuyen the yellow-throated marten is extremely stubborn and believes in strength of body and mind. She has a territory she defends fiercely, and hates changes in her usual routine. Like Ludwig, she's very practical and tends to hide her real feelings in order to prevent seeming weak to others or, more importantly, to herself. Alejandro the goat is stubborn also, though he is also a dreamer and an explorer. He can be reckless (which also caused him losing part of his horn) but does not let failures get him down, even though he was very shocked to find out his horn had broken.

Like the Water bookmark, this one is made of Bristol smooth paper, which is very thick and works great with both markers and India ink. The painting is mostly done with Copic markers, and has some Prismacolour pencil details. For some reason the scan looks so much harsher and messy than the original, I'm not sure which settings I need to change to get rid of that effect. Sorry for the watermark, but I am very proud of this and don't want it stolen :/ I drew this back in the summer months, but never got around to scanning it. Anyway, enjoy!
