(Done in 2011, description is as it was written when submitted to FA)

Ohhh god I am so happy with this. Took me a few days of working on it off and on, but it's finally done. I used a lot of new (to me) techniques here, and I'm happy that even though I haven't really finished any art in ...a while cough until now, I'm improving anyway. This is easily the best piece I've ever done.

I used a few things here that I didn't make.
The snowflake was a brush found here: http://www.brusheezy.com/brushes/1660-snowflake-vector-brushes-for-photoshop
The texture used for the image is here: http://lostandtaken.com/blog/2009/11/4/5-delicate-grunge-textures.html

This is my arctic fox fursona (slightly ironic that I'm from the deep south). Yay! She's excited for the first snowflake of the year. However, she's only just moved to Canada, and her husband (who is Canadian) is probably somewhere off-camera groaning to himself and saying things like "Oh, you don't -even- know what "first snow" means yet, noob."

(PS: Please fav and comment if you don't mind! I worked really hard on this and would like to know what you think :) Thank you!)
