I think the husky could use a good home. *puts a leash on the husky and takes him home with me*  

I am sure he would like that Kobuk.

Here is a drawing of a Mink Princess. I thought it would be fun
to draw one, and I think she would be a quite popular ruler of
any furry kingdom.




I hope you all like the drawing.

Comments welcome as always.

She's quite adorable!  I wouldn't mind her for a ruler!

I really like how your proportions look.  I have still have problems with that part of artwork. Still working on it though.
Love the clothing as well.  I can learn from your drawings!

Like Kada-Ru, I think it's nice to see realistic proportions occasionally !!

Thank you Kada_ru for your nice comments.  Glad you liked the princess drawing.
Knowing others liked it makes the work worthwhile.  Ok on the clothing, I have
always liked drawing clothes on my characters.

Thank you Shim for your comments as well. Glad you feel the proportions look
well too..  I enjoy drawing more realistic characters now and then.

Thanks again

I rarely  draw small kitties, but Shim asked me to
do his fursona.

So here he is tidying up one of his paws..



Hope you all enjoy looking at it.

Old Rabbit

I love this! Thank you so much for doing it !

Glad to do it Shim.. I am happy you liked it too..

Mr.Rabbit, you art work is superb.  there is a mystic about your work. As if they belong in an old story book containing something curiouse and fantastic. Very pleasing to the eye.

Thank you very much Onion.  Perhaps it's due to me growing up in the 1950's where most
comic and toon characters I saw, and loved were from the 30's and 40's..

A time when the the movie makers were willing to spend the money for quality cartoons. By
the late 50's they wanted them made as cheap as possible.

Thanks again.

I find your art interesting because the style is very distinct from what we see in most major animation and illustration today.  Sharp lines seem to be the style of choice lately, but the soft edges of your work give it an older, perhaps "classic" feel. I am reminded of some of my childhood storybooks when I look at these pieces.  And it's not that I'm saying the lines are sloppy, either--when I look at these pieces I can tell that there was thought put into each stroke.  Even if I don't comment on each piece, Old Rabbit, I do find them interesting and look forward to more.

Beatrix Potter comes to mind .

Thank you Landrav.  I appreciate your comments very much. 

I personally never cared much for hard outlines on my drawings or cartoons.

I suppose most professional cartoons are done that way because the animators,
and character artists draw them in lines, and let others do the coloring.

It is a good style for most cartoons, and fine for those who like it. But it the
characters seem more natural to me without the hard edge lines..

Your right Shim, Beatrix Potter's artwork has soft edges too.

Usually artists that do artwork for books do the whole work color and
all.  More like a painting instead of a nice line art cartoon..

Hi I have done another rabbit drawing.  Just a cute little
bunny watching a butterfly.  More of a storybook style ..




Hope you all enjoy it.

Very lovely Old Rabbit.  Once again, I much like it's resemblance to an oil painting, and you are definitely correct in your comparison to a storybook illustration.   

I missed your art, Old Rabbit. This is beautiful.

Thank you for the kind words Mylo. I am glad you like my style of
drawing.  I enjoy drawing illustrations like one might see in
a storybook.

Thank you very much Arbutus.  It's so nice of you
to say that.  I hope you enjoyed looking back at the work
I did while you were gone.  I don't draw all that fast,
but I enjoy doing illustrations now and then.  

Thanks again to  both of you.

Well it seems I have stumbled upon a treasure trove of sorts. I must say dear sir, I am greatly impressed by your styling and while skimming comments I do certainly agree that your work has that classic storybook feel.

Something you would find tucked away in a little bookshop with a roughly bound leather cover, filled with yellowing pages and near endless adventure and fantasy - a world of dreams softly brought to life through the simple strokes of a masterful touch, wordless in its epic; a story born only from the dreams and inspiration each who takes the time to sift through its pages are granted.

You are given a true gift in the talent you have crafted for some twenty odd years as you said previously; I am honored to have stumbled upon here, and in a way humbled by the simple majesty of your work sir.

Thank you very much for all your kind words Cirocco ..

I enjoy drawing in the older storybook style. I suppose
it's due to my age. I grew up in the 50's, and enjoyed
the storybook pictures in the books I read.  I plan to
continue posting more of this style as I have time.

Thanks again.

Old Rabbit

This latist piece is really nice. I like the shading. (I alway look foward to your work.)

Thank you for the kind words Onion.  

I have been trying to improve my shading.  I am glad
you like how it came out.

Sometimes I find shading in color a bit more difficult than
I did with pencil or charcoal.

Here is a magical bunny that pulled his own
self out of a hat.




Hope you all enjoy it.

That would look good on a magnet or button or something . I love your choice of background color and the white frame.

Thank you Arlesey for the nice comments. 

I chose orange for the background as it seemed
to fit the magical theme of the drawing best.

It likely would make a nice design for a button or card now
that you mention it.

Glad you enjoyed it.
