Our Students Union decided that they wanted a mascot, so I did some scetches.

In german SU is called "Fachschaft". This word contains the letters "schaf" which means "sheep". Therefore a sheep was a rather obvious idea for a mascot ;)

These were my first Ideas:

The idea for this painting had been on my mind for quite a while, but I never felt I had enough time to do it.

Finally, after all tests for the last semester were done, I just decided to start. To draw my protagonists proportions correctly I chose to use a reference this time.

I began with the figure in the foreground. After some work on the face I was not satisfied at all, so I reworked it completely. Even though I am rather fond of black hair, I switched it's colour during that process.
