Thank you. This work was almost ruined when i left it on the hood of a car. It was pouring rain, and I realized that I had left it on the roof, when the car had already left. I immediately went searching down the road, in the direction the car had gone. I found the piece in a ditch, in running water, and folded in half...glad i used oil based pastels. Sorry for the long story.

Wow, this is breathtaking. I like the angle and the blending of the colours. This has a nice, fiery feel to it

thank you. looking back, i wish i would have made the crop closer to the eye. the eye is the focal point, and it could afford to be bigger. oh well. there's always next time.

This looks great! I love the black lines representing the fur on his nose. I also love the green around the pupils and those little eyebrow whiskers. The composition works very well. Great work!!
