It's getting better and better! Fabulous.

Ruth this is great stuff. Your coloured pencil work is very good.

Stunning work Ruth, superb detail and colour!

I agree with the above. My advice would be: do not put too much background in, to accentuate more the beautiful rabbits. they are wonderful!!!

Agree with Mia - go careful on the background as this is beautiful as it is. Well done Ruth!

The rabbits are lovely Ruth! It's such a charming tableau!

This is excellent, their fur is so tactile. Beautiful work Ruth.

Ruth thank you for your kind words they spur me on!! I must say too that the composition is spot on really well done !!!!!

Oh Ruth it's looking quite beautiful now. What a lot of work in it but so effective. I hesitate to suggest a little more contrast of tone in the shadow areas when I know it's not quite finished.

Beautifully drawn, I look forward to seeing the finished result

Great texturing, and the eyes are full of life. Excellent. As with previous comments I would use caution with the background, so not to overpower or detract from the great work you have already achieved.

I should be terrified to add any more to it, but you're a braver woman than I am (er, did I mean that...?). Beautifully done, looking forward to the final result. Good paper, by the way, isn't it? Not that I can achieve on it anything like this, but credit where it's due - it is a pleasure to work on.

Thank you all very much or your comments, very very encouraging. I am pleased that it seems to be working out well so far. I'm taking my time on planning the background...two print-out so far with trial runs! And Robert, you mirror my feelings exactly...I'm plumb scared!

Well done Ruth, very well observed, also an excellent Album well worth the visit.

Thank you, everyone.
