  2. He is beautiful! Love how you've caught the folds in his skin and the deeper colors along them. His eyes look so full of knowledge and wisdom. By the way, Suzanne, my email address is available if you click on the profile line ("more about me") I think it says?

  10. Tobe really does look like a man's best friend. He comes across as a very loyal companion. I'm sure your client is thrilled. Everyone has already commented on the eyes, so I am just going to say that the ears, nose and mouth are pretty dang wonderful too! ;o)
