Hush now, quiet now
It's time to lay your sleepy head
Hush now, quiet now
It's time to go to bed

Hush now, quiet now
It's time for foals to rest their sleepy heads
Said, hush now, quiet now
It's time to go to beeeed

A remake/reimagining of An old Art piece that I made back in 2016. This was an opportunity for me to both make something that brought peace to my heart and soul, and to demonstrate how far my skills have come since 2016. Now of course I did change a few things from the original, thus making it more of a reimagining rather than a full-on remake. For starters, I made the Crusaders as foals and put them in a crib, because as we all know, there are few things in this world that are as precious as sleeping infants (whether they're humans, kittens, puppies, bears, horses, etc...). Second, I expanded the background a bit as it was a big weakness in the original. Third, the lighting and shading is much more appropriate for a nursery with the lights out.

God this is so cute. The lighting is perfect. The expressions are perfect. They just look so cozy and snuggly. I wish that was me, honestly.

Also I noticed that this was like by the founder of this website. There should be a badge for that sort of thing, for when the founder likes your artwork.

Let's hope they stay asleep throughout the night and don't cause any mischief.
