This is gorgeous, P!! Those ears are practically 3D, and I love the background colouring effect over the spirals. I love it! :D

So, so, so beautiful. And so full of life, and loving every minute of it, which is always what painted dog has taught me in our interactions. I love that you used the warm tones, and the curls bringing emphasis to the lovely golden eye... Thank you for doing this. :-)

Ooh!

[sylvertongue.livejournal.com]

He is so beautiful. Damn.

Must not be buying more. But oh, so tempted.

Great color combo. I love all the spirals you put in your art. I also really liked the eye marks. Great work!!

Aw thank you!On my list, I don't think I have any more canines, but there will be a spotted hyena coming up, and down the tract a wolverine. Hoorah for wolverines!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hee, I could just hear the accent in that.
Thank you very much. :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you babe, it's probably one of my least favourites of all the pictures I've done, but I think that's because I'm not a fan of browns/ochres in that combination. Heh.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Aw thank you! The ears were actually sooo hard in the sketching process. They're huge! Much bigger than most dog ears. Except for a fennec fox. :)

Got your email! Will reply soon. If you don't get a reply straight away it's not because I think anything is bad (I really really don't), but because I like to make reply emails when I have my wits about me. heh.

Aw thank you very much. I have the lessons of painted dog written down already, one day a written totem file will be forthcoming, it's one of the first ones I ever did. :)

Re: Ooh!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Aw thank you! I want to pet his nose. I bet he wouldn't like that.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. The ears were hard, but I like the way they look now.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

They are so gorgeous! I could've watched them as a family unit for hours at Perth Zoo (they have a huge enclosure there), but Glen gets bored. Lol.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :)
They look fluffy and touchable.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Heh. Aww, well, there will be more coming, I'm doing this while I take a 'break' from any big projects, so there's quite a few interesting ones on my to do list. :D

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I like the eye marks a lot actually.

[paleo.livejournal.com]

You made my day by telling me you will be doing spotted hyena! I've been wanting to see your take on 'yenas for about a year honestly.
And Wolverine should be very interesting as well.

The African Wild Dogs at our zoo were really sleepy the last time I went to visit them. I did get a plush one though, since I think their markings are so lovely.
