Holey moley P! That is gorgeous!

Dhole is finished! I just put it up. Another member of the canid family bites the dust.

You're gonna want to shoot me because my next request will probably be a canine. But one that I've *never* seen any art of, much less totemic art. *runs from the wrathful P*

*is curious*
Is it Dire Wolf?

[paleo.livejournal.com]

Ooooh! I'd forgoten that you'd opened up to offers of extinct animals. Very, very tempting. I was actually thinking of Bush Dog (the only major canine I've never seen you do). But darn, Dire Wolf is tempting.
Do you think you'll get back into commissions in a year or two? Part of me wants to reserve Dire Wolf for that. But...*is tempted now*.

I would love to do bush dog; as for Dire Wolf... hmm... I wouldn't mind doing something larger for Dire Wolf like I did with the vultures down the track. Maybe once I've moved and am settled into my own place?

*nods* No hurry at all. Money is tight for me right now and I was actually thinking about doing the commission in a year or so. I love your "as Totem" series but wanted something a bit more personal for Dire Wolf.
It really wouldn't bother you to do bush dog even if I probably won't buy it?
And I just wanted to say that I love your art almost as much as I love the artist. :-) *is mushy wolf*

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't bother me at all! I do the 'as totems' series for the challenge of drawing animals I've never drawn before (and sometimes, rarely, never even heard of before!) - that I make money off it is wonderful, but it wasn't the reason why I started the request lists. :)

*mushy kitten snuggles*

OMG the little face. <3

The detail and colours in this one are awesome! I love the head (face and eyes) and the detail on the wings.

Ooh dragonfly! *makes happy squeaky noises*
I love the colours and sinuous shapes in this.

[silere.livejournal.com]

eeeee. This is very much a happy-color picture. I'll come back and look at it when i'm happier, to get the full experience. Love the face. and the wings are so delicate.

Eeeee dragonfly!

I heart insects so much. <3 Especially little jewel-bright ones with wings. And weird alien-looking ones. And... okay, so I like bugs. >_>

The eyes are so adorable! What a sweet little dragonfly!
