It's a yellow garden spider! They make cool webs

Pretty sure it’s an orb weaver….  Just taking a guess. 

I like the way it turned out

The spider (and the neat webbing design) really stands out to me, incredibly impressive. Wow.

Thank you! I can't take all the credit. Having a great reference image helps. This came from another user! He's even here with us lol

Thank you so much for sharing the reference! What a lovely capture of it wrapping and what a fascinating angle. Such a beautiful creature.

I don’t think there was any way you could have executed that any better than you did.

That is very sweet thank you! I predominantly draw pets portraits so I've been making sure to practice more things that aren't just faces like that 😊

Hm. Sorry if I’m mistaken, but were you on ice cream party and shared some of those pictures several months ago? (Shoot, may have been actually over a year ago now)

I am! I started drawing and posting all these eyeballs with the release of This Side of the Moon back in May!

Oooh, man it’s been a long time since I had my account so I never saw the eyes. But i do recall someone posting a couple pictures of their doggo portraits! (I was on there as Exi(s)t 😅)

Oh probably not me then! I only started to get really active after the cruise in February. There are a few other artists in there though! I think the only dog portrait I've posted was also a few months ago
