This is really beautiful, just as it is. I can only imagine it finished ...how amazing this will be. Love her expression, the canvas size and the curves in it.

Sorry, didn't mean to bump this to the top, just wanted to complete it. I kept thinking about that poem "Ozymandius" while I was playing with the watercolour brush...trying to make it look like her body was made of sand, blowing away in the wind.

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I've got a book of poems from when I was a kid and this is one of the poems.

I don't know what happened to the b/g? It didn't look like that when I posted it. Anyway, we can fix it later. A rough sketch to start with.

I don't blame you for not wanting to live anywhere else.....it sounds fabulous there. I bet your island is surrounded by nice clean water.....not spoiled by any oil spills. I bet the fishing is great there,,,,,do you do any fishing at all?? Maybe you might do a draw of your island sometime.....it would be interesting to see.......:)

Luniki (Jun 23, 2010)

I'd never have the patience to draw sth so detailled!

Flubbles (Jul 1, 2010)

The good thing is when you do a collab you only have to do half of the work.

very pretty fox....everytime I see a fox, it makes me think of a special person that I know, who loves foxes......I hope you finish this....:)

elly (May 4, 2010)

looks like a sly fox to me =) Great job, keep it up!

Suntan (May 4, 2010)

When I look at it I think of George Clooney. Mr. Fox. hehee.. nice one. ;)

firecracker (May 4, 2010)

I agree "Elly"......he does look kinda sly......but I think all foxes have to be sly, because they are always being "hunted" by some unethical hunters, and all these rich women who like to wear fancy fox fur coats, etc. I won't buy a real fur coat.....I think the "faux" fur coats are just as pretty. Soooo....I guess that's the reason that foxes have to be sly...."lol"! This is a nice draw.....I hope you finish this pretty fox!! :)

Peace
