After wanting to do some warm-ups before working on an arduous dog portrait, I was trying to figure out what to work on that would be different than what I usually do. Well, thanks to TungstenKitten's suggestion for background practice in my Follower Questionnaire, I knew what I was going to do!

I also tried to work on something I wouldn't see in nature, so I went with something as far from nature as possible with this one; this is a quick painting of a screenshot I took in my game Alice: Madness Returns, in the Hatter's Domain. I think this was really worth my time! I really appreciate the bizarre yet enticing color schemes that I never would have thought of myself, and the environment is just stunning to me in-game.
