This started as a simple fun doodle and then somehow morphed into a full fledged painting. After I did the sketch I thought it would be a good piece to practice some basic lighting techniques. The hardest part of the piece was getting the cloud under his foot to feel like he had just placed his foot there. I tried looking at people running through muddy water but that resulted in the clouds feeling too heavy, so I reworked it and attempted to make it feel more airy and light. I still don't think it's entirely correct but hopefully it reads well enough. Best part was the drooooool.
