Olala the Oracle

Lonely and protective; Olala watches over the forests and the flowers; waiting one day for the asker of the question that will release her from her duties and allow her to roam with her descendents in the prairies of Amadudu.

Colored pencil on paper. I went into this work in a peaceful, lonely mood, and I do not think I have enjoyed myself so much in a while.

I had been viewing the work of Hive account@krasnec and Hive account@romanie before I constructed this piece; and their work freed something in me I cannot put my finger on. It is obvious their influence made its way in; along with other steemit artists. Does anyone notice other possible artists influences in my piece? Even your own?

Here it is before I applied filters. Filters bring the image forward but there are some softer qualities of the collored pencil that you lose.
