I like that very much! Your technique with graphite drawing is very pleasing to the eye. I like the way you create the details on the bears fur and on the grass theyre laying on and in the foreground. The overall impression is of a well finished drawing which includes a light source and natural details both in the figures and the surrounding natural environment. There is nothing that looks overdone or underdone.
This drawing leaves me wanting to see more of your work, especially any nature renderings or animal portraits. I really like your family theme which leaves me believing this is a mother bear with her cub.
Well done!
