Raccoons are awesome except when they're making funky noises right outside my bedroom window at 3am and freaking out the dog. ;)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Heh, kind of like possums then. :D

[erynn999.livejournal.com]

Yes, but with better teeth.

Okay... okay.... .... .. okay.

I.
Just.
Love this.

I want to hug it. I don't know what it is.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

They look very fluffy and huggable. :)

Beautiful coloring!!!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :D

OMFG DEAD OF CUTE

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Hee. :D

[white9-fox.livejournal.com]

It's a cream coon :D

I love raccoons, they're awesome. Even with the threat of rabies.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thankfully we don't have to worry about rabies here. By my flawed logic, as he was drawn in Australia, he's an Australian raccoon with no rabies!

I have always liked raccoons. They're fun and that translates into this piece nicely. And the colors are quite fun...

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Aw thank you. :D

Again, as with the case of the clouded leopard, the eyes on this one are really special. :) (I don't know what the difference is, I normally really like your work as you well know. Somehow the eyes in these latest two pieces are particularly mesmerizing.)

Glen's been commenting that my latest batch of totems has been more affecting, even for him. I find that really interesting.

Maybe I need to take big three month breaks from the artwork more often!

[silverjackal.livejournal.com]

Heh. If you take another long break people may be so hypnotized that the can't look away! (This is a very good thing if they are also compelled to send you money in exchange for art...) ;)

I felt in love with this one.
The color, the awesome look of the raccoon <3
A master piece!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[sidheblessed.livejournal.com]

SO CUTE!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Cute will rule the world!

[qilora.livejournal.com]

CHIRP! SQUEEK!

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Absolutely beautiful! Are the rune shapes your creation or from something?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

The glyphs are what the animal wants, and not every animal I get 'close enough' too, to get one. Or sometimes they just don't want to express themselves through a symbol.

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Beautiful!

[psychrobia149.livejournal.com]

I looooove this one too! Beautiful work as always! :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

[shimmerhawk.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! Something about the colors and composition fit raccoon perfectly.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Raccoon always asks for variations on these colours, it's really weird. Some animals adsk for something different, others always ask for the same thing.

[qilora.livejournal.com]

AHHH!!!! IS LOVE! :D
