"Jewel" finally the last snake. It has been an AMAZING journey drawing them. although it started because i was forcing myself to overcome my extreme fear of snakes and getting to know them for my Grad film, The Spirit of the White Snake and meanwhile improving my traditional skills by using oil pastels.. But then, as I stated looking at the many many different kinds of snakes, I realized, and now believe that they are one of the most beautiful creatures present in nature. Sure, I definitely agree that they are scary and dangerous, like how can you believe something that can move without having any arms or legs? but due to this "disability" only they have one of the most gracious and elegant movement. How can I NOT be awestruck and amazed by something that is present in ALL colours, ALL sizes, ALL shapes and ALL the mesmerizing patterns? #snakelover #snakelove #snake #reptile #naturebeauty #nature #oilpastels #wild #beauty #nature #sketchbook #animals #mothernature #beautifulearth #jewel #pattern #ShalArt #artistsofinstagram #instaart #artwork
