The Leprechaun

I created this for one of the monthly contests on The Art Mentor’s Discord channel, specifically for St Patrick’s Day.

I wanted to use warm colours with subtle contrasts and try to convey a sense of friendship between the leprechaun and the mouse.
For the background, I finally used some of the hundreds of photos of mushrooms I’ve taken over the year
