Title: I need some in put to finish this
Post by: DaveHawk on February 18, 2013, 06:01:13 PM
I've done the Fox but I need to finish this off {with} or {with out} the tree across the face ?

Well since you asked I like the expression in the non Branch Fox Painting.
Todd has a bit more Twinkle in his eye?..
I think They are both Good!

Both are good but I prefer the painting as-is -- without.

I don't know what it is about these sly little critters (maybe my own personality responding?) but this is now one of my two favorites of your work, the other being the raccoon emerging from the tree to trace down a yummy scent. Great stuff.

I like how he seems a little more mature in your version. :) Almost seems a bit like a kit in the actual photo...the fella in your painting is all grown up. I vote w/out the branch.

And soon the rotten turnips and vile insults were flung to and fro about the room, as the gathering of loyal TMC members and usual scumbags politely debated another of the great questions of existence -- twig? Or no twig?

The beauty of it is, the painting will be perfect either way.

If I were so selfish and childish as to indulge in envy, Dave, I would envy you, same as I would envy those who are able to plunk at simple strings and somehow produce wonderful music. But -- I've had the good fortune to be blessed with two gifts, and to be greedy would not be the way to show proper appreciation. All I can say is, I very much like your work. That little red fellow makes me smile every time I open this topic.
