keeping things spicy

i have largely been working on the bestiary drawings but i miss other media. so, i'm going to throw in the odd experiment here and there for no good reason other than to provide some variety.

i have good days and bad days staring at this. i chose to self impose a basic colour combination and only paint in gradients. i'm going to try some other so called basic combinations as well. i'm going to guess they'll be ugly / uglier.
