      Leroy (3.5 years) and Olive (4 months). Took years to get them to hold still long enough for their portrait. Would absolutely love free crickets!!

      How fun! I love the portrait behind them. The little one is so tiny!

      wow! very nice! Is the Dragon King a dragon breeder? How long have you been painting for? Do you use acrylic or alkyd paints?

        I am not a breeder, but maybe someday. I love art especially theater and I have been painting for about 10 years. I will use all mediums of paint depending on the texture I want, but mostly just watercolors.

      Wow. They’re both gorgeous. Especially like the big boy. Welcome regardless, but I’ll especially welcome a fellow artist. Your painting is adorable! I can’t paint very well yet, but I can sketch.

      One of my drawings.

        If you’re interested in sites to maybe post some of your stuff, I know a few I use.

        very impressive detail on the cat’s fur! how long does it take to craft one of those pieces? Does your cat actually sit for that long??

          Some replies aren’t posting so idk what y’all will see. Lol

          And thank you! This was actually a commission for a Christmas gift. But this cat is actually one of my cats’ sister. I rescued her and gave her to who this gift was purchased for. I Put it in a frame and all that.

          I usually use reference photos of the animal, even of my own pets. So much easier that way. This photo took me about a week to complete. Usually closer to two weeks but I had to rush to do this before Christmas. Do draw each individual strand of fur. Some people do it differently, but that’s how I do it as I’m self taught.
