Another very lovely composition. I like how you seem to have captured the texture in the koala's fur. Expressions on their faces were also very well executed, especially like the eyes. Shading well done. Should be a six!

You have a great technique here -- a warm, cuddly inviting subject -- loved by many. It is well composed and defined. Thanks for sharing!

Delightful subject presented wonderfully ! I say the same things and probably have said that more than I need to but your work is so proffessional and utterly amazing in detail. Every piece is stunning !

This is a really interesting piece of art. The use of pencil and the shades of ink are really nice. Thanks for sharing this one with us on the site.

Comment from Leighann


You have achieved a softness to their coats that you can almost feel in this piece. Really beautiful detail and a wonderful job.

You are a real "Dot-Machine" when it comes to creating these images. Your skill is awesome and the details are correct. These koalas seem alive.

Comment from Ciel


Pointillism is a perfect style to convey the soft furriness of creatures like koalas! I like how you have captured the larger textures within that furriness, too. The eyes of these two koalas are very attractive, too.

Comment from Montysart


A charming picture of Mother and child with the child clinging on for dear life....the facial expressions are very lifelike altho' I think ( my opinion only) it would come MORE to life with most emphasized catchlights...Best wishes...Monty

    Montysart, do you mean more constrast in the shading, "catchlights?". Thanks for the review and the suggestion... take care and cheers... LvO
reply by Montysart on 30-Apr-2006
    NO...I mean tiny 'glistens' of white in the eyes... see (for examples only) some of the Old Master's paintings especially of portraits...Cheers...Monty
Comment from Diamondeyes


EXCELLENT! Another masterpiece! It is just so amazing to me to be able to achieve such fantastic results from this pointillism drawing. This must have taken you a very long time to finish! The end results are awesome! Excellent proportions! I love the textures you have achieved on the tree limb! Excellent job. Thank you so much for sharing this.
