Arches smooth surface. approx 22 " x 30" It is a full sheet. A little more done. Seeing it posted always seems to show little thing that need to be changed. The left eye looking at it needs to be adjusted a touch wider. There is a huge amount of hair on this Orang-utan which means lots of work. Should keep me quiet for a w...
Greetings Readers, Definitely unpacking my woollies was the right thing to do as today ( Sunday ) it has not stopped raining, and is quite chilly too. Blue hates it is as well so has decided that a quick nip outside for a wee and a poo if needed is the way to go....I love to her...
