Absolutely stunning Dors - these would sell so well as prints, especially to Australian tourists. You are so talented!!! :)
Thank you a million times Karen for your encouraging words.
I appreciate so much.
Your work just amazes me. I feel like I could reach out and touch that soft fur. And those sweet, shiny eyes...just perfect. What a beautiful face!
Just beautiful Dors, those eyes are so friendly and I agree with Karen!
Its all been said Dors ... this is so beautiful. Great to have you back at the 'drawing board' :o)
Thank you so much Gwen and Sam.
It's like becoming friends with the animals as I draw..LOL Creating a personality... if you know what I mean.
Lovely finish, Doreen! I know what you mean about becoming friends with the animal - I compare it to stroking one!
Lovely drawing. He is so sweet!
Thank you Sue. It's good to be back drawing again. Thanks for you lovely comment. :)
Thank you Jan. Yes it is a bit like stroking one. drawing can make you feel very attached. :)
Thank you Lene. They must all look sweet...I have never studied the Kangaroo that close. I do remember in the mid 60's holding hands with one at the Healsville Santuary in Melbourne. It felt very special at the time.
That is beautiful! You have captured the texture of the fur brilliantly - it looks so dense and fluffy.
I also love the soft intensity of the eyes.
Its such a brilliant and cute piece :)
Brilliant! You have brought him to like, I feel as though I can feel the softness of his fur. I also love the softness of the eyes, Dors you are an amazing artist. All the best to you.
Your work really makes me want to grab a pencil and draw like crazy!!
It has been said already, Dors, but have to say it myself anyway... glad to have you back and sharing your beautiful work!
RLT Art, Joan and Barbara. Thank you.
I am so overwhelmed by your kind comments.
Thank you to all my blogger friends for your continuing encouragement, support, kindness and friendship.
Hi Dors,
It has all been said before me. This is an incredible work of art. You are a master with the pencil. Best to you.
Sue
Thank you so much Sue. I really appreciate your comment.
Wonderful drawing , Dors!
Full of life and character!
Compliments!
Best regards from Romania!
Beautiful, Dors!
He feels so inquisitive and alive. What a great job you've done :)
Thank you so much Wind and Pat. I appreciate your kind comments very much. He was a lovely character to draw.
Dors, he does look wonderful. You are one determined artist by undertaking the same drawing twice! Have you ever tried Fabriano Artistico hot press 140lb paper? More expensive but I just love it with graphite!!
Absolutely wonderful artwork.
I agree with Karen Hull it would
be great as a print!
Hi Colette. I have tried Frabriano but I don't think I have tried the one you suggest. I will get some and try it out. Thank you so much. I always appreciate you suggestions and comments. :D
Thank you Suzanna for your kind comments. I am thinking about yours and Karen's suggestion. I have searched out an Australian company that prints artwork.
This is so beautifully soft Dors, superb work with Graphite and yep I agree with Karen would look great as a print.
Thank you Vic for your kind comments. I always appreciate you kind words.
I'm working hard here to learn as much as I can. :)
WOWEE DORS!!!!!!!!!!!
This is awesome! I feel like I could touch him he looks so alive.
Girl - you are GOOD!
Blushing here. LOL Thanks Teresa. Hugs.
So sweet. I love this. You and Sam definitely have an affinity for capturing the souls of the animals you draw and paint. fantastic.
Thank you Liz for your kind words. :)
Dors I love it, stunning as usual :)
Thank you Krista. Always appreciate your comments. :)
I haven't been blogging for ages but just thought I'd check up on your blog and this kangaroo is just amazing. Very beautiful Dors.
Thank you so much Sally. Hope your lack of blogging was due to lots of commissions. ;)
