Tag As FavoriteComment		Another painting for confurence. I had lots of fun with oils on this one, trying to keep the technique and brushwork loose, but still authoritative. This one, I think worked pretty well. I'm not uploading the ones that didn't! Oil, around 20x30'.

As the man said, very rich. Her eyes kinda freak me out, though, too much a lack of spirit and much too animal like.

Gorgeous. You could've computer-colored this for a sleeker, mainstream sort of look, but it looks so much richer and creamier in oils. Also, it's nice how her body isn't stick-thin, like many females depicted on Elfwood.

Oh meant to add, the raised ears and eyebrows go along with the curiosity look.

Too animal like? A beautiful amber/gold rich in curiosity and wonder. That's what I see anyway. You must not have pets. I see a spirit when I look into the eyes of mine.

She's lovely. She reminds me a great deal of the book "Reynard the Fox" illustrated by Alain Vaes. Beautiful book if you ever get the chance to see it. Anyway, I love the color composition in this piece. Makes me think autumn...

Dragonet: Who's she waiting for, her boyfriend? he, he,he...

Foxtrot: *Slap Dragonet on the forhead* Don't mind her. We love your composition. It's the first time we ever saw a female fox portrayed in such a fashion.

Dragonet: *Rub head and give thumbs up* Great work man, keep it up!

Love it. The fox head seems to add a sly and graceful feeling ot it. Foxes are sly graceful and so on. The human body makes the creature look sexy

I just love the warm colours. The strokes are very classic oil painting, being sorta thick and blurry, yet this does not make the image messy or blurry, but makes it stand out more. Clever move, say I.

Great work, mate, great work!

Foxxy...whoa !!!

She’s lovely. But why do furry arthros have human bodies with 2 breasts and visible navels? Animals, and animal people, would have 6 abdominal breasts and navels would be fur covered.
