Mushroom Satyr

I found a couple of good ones from '10 in a big pile of watercolors collecting dust in my studio (which just happens to be an extra bedroom in my house!). This shroom-savoring satyr was inspired by Brian Froud's Puck, from his book, Faeries. Froud is one of my favorite artists, definitely a huge influence on my style. He designed the creatures in Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal, two of my all time favorites growing up. The baby in Labyrinth was actually played by his son, what do you think of that, eh? Eh?
