The New Year IS STOLEN!

Hello everyone!
I made this drawing on past holidays as a part of the online event hosted by Ellina Akhiamova in her Telegram channel! https://www.artstation.com/ellinaah

The input was to draw an elf, with no restrictions really. You could use a ref pose, portrait, or whatever else you want, except AI.
I decided not to use any references to posture, emotion, or character, and just go with the flow. Luckily, I got the idea right away. But don't get me wrong, I did use references on general vibe, magazine cover and other stuff.

I spent hours drawing this illustration in the company of my most dearest friends, who also gave me advises here and there. It was not only productive, but sincerely fun. I love them :3

Well, I guess that's it! Have a good Year ahead of you and keep watch on the things you love! Don't let anyone steal it!
Take care
