This is my work for @sirsensei ‘s <a href="https://steemit.com/drawitbetter/@sirsensei/18-drawitbetter-contest-winners-and-new-theme">contest</a>. 

I've never seen a wolf in the forest. I think it's wonderful! But It's hard to draw someone I did not see. Yes, I saw a wolf in a zoo, but usually the animals in the zoo do not feel very well. Those wolves that I saw were shabby and look like yard dogs. And I'll paint today from a photo, forest wolves are beautiful. I do not know how the photographer manages to catch their beauty and pass on to us.

I paint with Finecolour markers. I will use brown and gray tones of markers. For snow and glare I'll take a gel white pen. I draw on Canson marker paper. For sketching and wool, I have a gray watercolor pencil.

I start with the silhouette of a wolf, I outline the main lines with a watercolor pencil. Pencil dissolve on paper from an alcohol marker. I take light shades of brown and gray and begin to gradually draw the wolf. I move from top to bottom and from light to dark. When I picked up the main tone - I turn to the details. I try to paint with small strokes to convey the effect of the wool.

To make the picture light up, I add the background. Against this background, I paint snowflakes. I also draw snowflakes on the wool of a wolf. It seems to me that it turned out cool)))
