Oh my!
The delicacy of your work is incredible, the fur looks soft, and the expression in her eyes.......
such talent Leigh x

Very impressive, may I ask what medium you use.

Wonderful.

I use water colour pencils and pastles but I don't use the pencils for there water colour properties apart from the odd high light . thank you so much and ask what you want .

Fantastic!!! you really are so talented.

Wonderful Leigh, so incredibly lifelike.

Thank you stroller i sold it already lol i got a commission too do too of a bumble bee landing on a flower .
