Damn. Your coloring just gets better and better, and I love that you can draw any animal--I mean, seriously, have you ever had an animal you couldn't draw?

Two: the first time I tried river dolphin, that was a bust. And I didn't want to give it up until right towards the end, so it was fully coloured and everything. But I conquered that one by connecting and again and knocking it out of the park.

And arabian, which I've never been able to do again since.

<3 the Ethiopian wolf =3 I really like the way this one turned out (though of course, I like your art in general ;]), especially his slight "smile".

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

There was not one ethiopian wolf reference picture that didn't have that very slight smile. Such genial looking wolves!

[anrui-ichido.livejournal.com]

Such a sly look. I love it. The gradation of colour is fantastic. :)

From a devotee of Wepwawet: this is incredibly, amazingly, epically awesome. The smirk is perfect, the everything is perfect. <3 I am in awe of your ability to put such intangible things down on paper.

Wow, thank you. :)

I love the blue in this one! I really like blue. It is pretty.

THIS IS GREAT!

You're so talented it's mindblowing.

This is glorious. I really love the blues (unsurprisingly as I'm fond of Lapis and Tanzanite), and the delicate desert sunrise hues in the spirals. And of course Wepwawet/the Ethiopian wolf... :D

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I like the blue / tan combination myself, and for me, I like the gradation from sunset/sunrise colours into the darker blows, and then the white flecks on the chakra wheels - which remind me of stars.

Gorgeous, as always...

This set of totems is all lovely, but I like this one best, as the symbol on the wolf is very cool and I love the rainbow-y backdrop. :) Also, BLUE!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Blue! :D

Canine! I love the glint in his eye. Does the blue represent lapis lazuli?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Does the blue represent lapis lazuli?

I didn't go in deliberately associating that particular shade of blue in the glyph, with lapis lazuli, though the blues in the background for *me* represent a night-sky, with the white flecks in the chakra wheels @ highly symbolic stars. Most people have seen a lapis lazuli connection. I didn't see it; but I see it now, quite clearly. It's just what Wepwawet/Ethiopian Wolf wanter.

Wowza. The colors here are glorious, and his energy is so beautiful. Amazing, Pia~ :) <3

This is awesome. :) I wonder what "Bast-Mut as Cougar" would look like. Maybe someday I'll have to find out. Someday when I have my own house and need things to put in it. :-)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Bast-Mut as Cougar would be pretty cool too! :D

[liondaughter.livejournal.com]

It keeps popping up in my head. Are you still open for business and what ate you charging for these?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I am (not officially, but yeah, I am), though it may be about a month-ish before I get to cougar/Bast-Mut.

And it's a 20% deposit of $80 USD (so $20 USD) to secure it in a place - and a blanket fee of $80 USD including postage. :)

[liondaughter.livejournal.com]

There's no rush. I'll give it some more thought and let you know some time after I am back in Pittsburgh. Though this one does have more of a "now" quality about it rather than the "someday it would be nice to have a drawing of Chitter." I think it's the sense that I want the picture of Chitter more than Chitter actually cares about being drawn. Bast-Mut on the other hand . . . This might be coming from Her. :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

No worries. Just let me know either way when you're ready.

I love that icon. Happy cougar!

[liondaughter.livejournal.com]

Can I paypal you the $20?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Sure thing. To my regular email address as usual. You're thirteenth on the list (one of my favourite numbers) and I'm currently working 5-9. So it's not really that far away either. :)

[liondaughter.livejournal.com]

Just sent it. :)
