Wolves are one of my favorite animals to draw. I thought I would practice my skills of perspective with a wolf scene. One of the rules of perspective is that objects get smaller as they get farther away; also, if two objects are the same height and on a level plane, the horizan line will touch them in the same place.
That is why all three of the wolves' heads are on the same height (the wolf in the background's head would be at the same height, but he's stretching his neck down), and the same distance from the horizan line. I also experimented with the trees and grass, giving them less detail as they grew further from the viewer.
The small tree whose top touches the clouds is a re-draw; my first attempt was pretty lazy and scribbly and my brother said it could be better. He also said the birch trees looked weird, like they had been "squeezed," but I was too lazy to change them.
I colored over the black outlines of the wolves with shades of gray, which gave it a more professional and interested look that I am definitely going to experiement with more in the future. I didn't realize that the black lines I used were dragging things down.
