While working on some sketches for background paintings, I sort of drew a bunch of little elves (was listening to Christmas music) all over the edges of the paper. I liked this one, so decided to color it.
Below you can see the original sketch. I scanned that, and filled in solid areas of color below the lines. I did a little shading, then colored the lines a bit, and then flattened it all together. Then I did all the clean-up and details on the flattened layer. When I was done, I added a couple layers of textures over the top. Fun!

Fer cute.
Your character design work is as impressive as your colors! Really amazing Maryn. ...and like Guy said, Cute!
really adorable elf! you're so talented.
Us Disney guys think your brilliant.
I'm looking for a logo for a new specialist clothing company, would you consider licensing your elf to me? I've done the same with a graphic designer from France who licensed me his Cameleon for my time as a freelance PR
Hi I love your elf
I am teaching Rufty and Tufty to my 3 year old daughter, and I cant find any clipart to illustrate the poem. Do you have any elves that are doing any of the actions in the poem? Here it is:
RUFTY AND TUFTY
Rufty and Tufty were two little elves
Who lived in a hollow oak tree
They did all the cooking and cleaning themselves
And often asked friends in to tea.
Rufty wore blue, and Tufty wore red,
And each had a hat with a feather,
Their best Sunday shoes they kept under the bed -
They were made of magic green leather.
Rufty was clever and kept the accounts,
But Tufty preferred to do cooking.
He could make a fine cake without weighing amounts -
And eat it when no one was looking!
