Da impasto thread

[Nonak]

No school mentioned in the title, how crazy is that?
I just wanted to organize everything into a single thread since the long dog keeps occasionally popping up here. Also maybe it'll give me ideas for lore to give it, so far all we know is that Impasto likes walks in the park, gifting people flowers, most colours, especially vibrant ones and dislikes being called a snake. He's been mistaken for one way too many times.

The original Impasto. Kind of poorly drawn and forgotten about till I randomly put him in my signature and @Luna_Tuna liked him so she gave him a name and drew this awesome pic of doggo in the park:

This was used as a reference by my arts teacher to make me a birthday gift(shown it in a profile post) which I still love a ton aaaand she had leftover fabric so I started making my own one. It'll stay in this almost finished state till September, but thats okay.

Something I finished just today,
Extra long dog:

217 centimeters in height (~7,11 feet). Wasn't sure if it'd fit on the wall, glad it does. No idea where I'd store it otherwise.
There are no more Impastos invading my house so that's all! Questions are welcome maybe I'll make something good out of them.

That was pretty kind of her, she really seems to like you
I've seen crafts like this from a friend of mine. She works in the after-school program at an elementary school and has done something similar with the kids there. However, they stuffed long socks and then used colorful buttons for eyes.

1) I was bored I drew something. Probably. No idea honestly.
2) You'd have to summon Luna to ash'k her about the name. She suggested naming him, but since I suck at that I left it up to her.

I tried to draw Impasto using impasto as a technique but I don't think it turned out that well. I have almost no experience with oil paint.

Yes! I also really like her. I've been coming to her for at least 6 years now.

It is an after school thing too, a part of "the house of children's and teen's art" i have no idea what these things are called in English so I just directly translated the name. There's a lot of activities and not just artsy ones.
I've seen these sock dudes too! I also remember having a book about them but I won't be able to find it now.
