love it! beautiful creature( dont know what kind of cat it is for sure) and a breathtakeing backround!

oh my! O:

she won't be home for another hour or so but I'll make sure she sees this... eeee! ^____^ she will squeeeeeeeeeeee!

I just got home last night from a weeklong trip and today Bagheera was kind enough to send me a link to this! I hope you didn't feel this was overlooked..as certainly I would never ever allow such a thing. I really...wow..I was floored by this and left..speechless by the vastness of this surprise. I can't really even begin to thank you for this...I have no words that live up to the sense of gratitude and appreciation I feel. You captured her sense of nobility and quiet power so beautifully..I am humbled and honored.. (Though I think she is far more regal than I am!)

And your words...thank you. I am happy to lend a helping hand where and when I can...and so I hope you know I required nothing in return and certainly nothing so..moving as this!!! Thank you with all my sincerity...

I hope it won't be too much a favor to ask if I could get the high res file for this...or if you aren't comfortable with that, a print of it. I just want to run a print of this to frame and hang on my wall C:...a signed copy would be even more magnificent but I don't want to impose in anyway!

Absolutely! I'll email that shortly. Trust me, no amount of gift art could express how grateful I am. It may just feel like a couple emails and some obvious answers, but it means alot to me- I've gone into doing several things that without your advice, I'd be doing blind (or more likely, not doing at all- I'm a chicken). Not just recently- you've answered questions in the past reguarding cons, putting together a portfolio, etc.

And of course that doesn't touch on how helpful you've been with the calendar- hell, before you were even involved you offered incredible assistance. I often feel like the world is filled with unreliable people, and so every time I come across someone who is the exception (and therefor exceptional), I really want to make sure its clear how much I appreciate that person.

Thank you for everything

Above all else I'm just floored by that background -- okay, it's referenced, but the way you've abstracted and kinda posterised the colours still gives an amazing effect.

beautiful work!

Isn't that Mount Rainier.

It might be! I have the reference photo linked above but it did not name the mountain.

Yeah it is. :P It's a huge, huge, HUGE mountain. O: I've hiked on it once. So much fun.
