My Art: Inky Quill in a plague doctor mask

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

This is a painting I did today of my Original Character who is a porcupine poet named Inky Quill. Inky is an American expatriate living in Victorian London, specifically the zoo at Regent's Park. He is wearing a bright blue plague doctor mask and a green-and-pink bow tie.

It feels like a picture full of life and movement. Even with a mask on, Inky's personality comes through. And I love that, no matter what, he's determined to keep his sense of style ^_^

Thank you! Yes, I wanted to show that even in times of crises, Inky is Inky and maybe he thinks that adding the bowtie somehow mitigates the ominous quality of the mask. And, yes, he will meet the challenge in his own way.
