I really hope you like it and it's the sort of thing you were looking for!
She asked for a cardboard painting with the theme of love/heartbreak/romance... So I hope this is good, even if it is a bit of a roundabout approach to the subject!

I kinda came up with this on the spot. The first thing that came to mind on this theme was a really old picture I did 3 years ago, who knows why, cause I haven't looked at it in forever. xD

So I tried to illustrate that again, only adding in the context of social class. (Like how love is forbidden between high class and low class.) The "foxerfly" (fox + butterfly) at the top is an aristocrat, while the "wolth" (wolf + moth) at the bottom is just a common fellow from the streets.

I'm thinking 1800s in London, ahahaha. Only with canines with insect wings!
What a wonderful concept for a book. I might do that sometime as a big project, because I've gotten rather attached to Miss Foxerfly and Mr. Wolth, even if it's been a good 3 years since I've seen them. xD

please fullview or download! <3

media: acrylic, ink and colored pencil on cardboard.
I actually DID use the ribbing inside the cardboard for a fence, since every other picture I've had with ribbing, people kept seeing a fence even though I never actually intended it to be. SO THERE! IT ACTUALLY IS A FENCE THIS TIME! xD
