Fox Face

[Enug]

Foxes were introduced to Australia in the early days - they are a menace but still beautiful!

I really like this June, such strong colours

Thanks Geoff. It's become very quiet around here. A lot looking - 476 but only three members alas.

Quiet is an understatement. I think many people don't comment because of not feeling qualified to say anything. I've heard that voiced in the past. I miss the early days that were very dynamic. But if there's only one person or two posting work with any consistency it doesn't encourage more.

Anyway, it's a lovely fox. Yes, they do have a bad reputation. But they probably help keep the rodents down a bit. We don't have them locally. We have coyotes and such. I love your colors and you're really going to town with fur these days.

Good stuff, June!

I must admit if it wasn't for you and Geoff, I would not bother posting. I post over on Deviantart and while I get plenty of affirmations I don't feel like I "know" anyone as there's no conversation as such.

Now that would be a great loss to us all here June:(:(:(
It's sadly true these forums are much quieter than once they were:confused:, but from all us regulars here, you are a much valued contributor to these forums and they would be the poorer without you.
I for one always look forward to seeing your paintings:D
Not only for there own sake but it's also been great watching you grow as an artist on this forum over the years too:cool:

Thank you Mark for the kind words. I was feeling a bit 'crabby' from lack of sleep. A problem for me. Of course I wouldn't stop posting but it feels like I'm posting too often and there is no one there - however we get 4/5hundred visitors each day so some are looking.

Right onto the next one!;););)

I know what you mean about like of postings, back in 2011 or there about we had a really active site and even the after nine area was really busy.
I went missing when my first wife developed cancer and I became too busy and troubled to even think about Artrage.

It's not that I require comments on my posts - I miss the interaction between members. However, I guess people move on to other things and other interests. Looking back over the pages, it seems it was a very lively forum even before I joined. Mr. Akey has been here thru thick and thin!:cool::cool:

I'm sorry Geoff to hear of your wife's sickness - I don't think I knew of you until fairly recently.

[D Akey]

Thanks for the kind words. Fortunately there was always at least a couple persons posting -- MacPloos for one, and in rich times, many more. The thought had occurred to me that my posting was a bit pointless. But it was stimulating, and right now I'm loving your guy's work and phenomenal progress. It's been worth sticking around for and that's the truth of it.

You may do an Illustration book with all this paintings.

Some times I ask myself if people on the site not connected don't discuss behind the screen,
is just an impossible invention of mine;
probably we don't have time like before and the most important no interest to show the work or discuss about technical subjects.
Maybe with a Art Rage 7 it will come some new interaction.
