haha thanks for your comments! No, no significance to the bobcat... I probably just picked the first animal photo I could find in the magazines in the art classroom. You should do one!! Love this portrait... did you work from a photo?
Your work is awesome... I keep saying I need to get back into color... but it scares ot. Not to sure why..... I guess after seeing your work and others I'll stick to pencil drawings. LOL
Ben: I really enjoy seeing your work with oils. You are very talented and I look forward to viewing more of your work. I am glad that I found your site. Continued success in all that you do. "Joey"
