A note about Comments, with a tech tip

 Several people have had difficulty seeing how to leave comments - how to get to where they can do so. So here it is:


 You see where it says "No comments:"? To the right of "Posted by Eileen Hale at [time]"? Click that. Sometimes, if someone else has already left a comment, it will say "1 comment:", or "2 comments:", etc.

I think that makes it sound like comments are not allowed - which is not the case. But it is a bit confusing.

Once you leave a comment, it won't show up until I moderate it. I basically always approve comments; if anyone ever tries to leave a spam comment, or something, I won't approve it, but other than that, we're good.

I love getting comments, and I also enjoy getting questions, and I think I can promise to try to answer them.

There you have it - hope that helps!

Last bit of work on DS#7, now Really Finished, and a bit on Wolves #1

 Yesterday I did the last little bit of work on DS#7. A bit of white in the eye, and some more eyelashes; and then saw something I could do on mouth and lips to bring it closer to the drawing I did.


 Now it's really really Finished. Really! I am not touching it any more. I think the additional work I did around the mouth makes him look less pretty, which is good.


 I love this piece! I don't really know quite where it came from ... Yes, I drew it out and planned it out, to some degree, but the way it all works together is something I didn't anticipate.


Also worked some more on The Two-Lizard Wolves Painting:


 Some outlining on the lizards, and filling in some of the background around them, and then added dark blue-purple above and below the foreground wolf's head. And a tiny bit of work on the rabbit's head.

 

 Tech tip: do you want to see any of these larger? Click on the image to make it almost-full-browser-window size. (This is not the same as "full screen...")
