Lutra tries to draw. :-p (updated 10/26/14)

Those are great! Just a random thing I noticed. You have very good handwriting, which is characteristic of good artists.

I'll never be good then. My handwriting sucks.

  Ditto!    Though, one thing I heard that I'm gonna be counting as fact is that intelligent people have really bad handwriting because they try to write down all of their ideas too fast.  I'm going with that idea. 

Me too!

My print hand is quite neat, but I can't say the same for cursive or illegible handwriting.
Perhaps I shouldn't have said characteristic of good artist, more like, if you have neat handwriting, you can be a good artist. But artists with handwriting like Lutra's (and my mom's) seem to be more comfortable with clear, defined lines and sometimes have a more cartoonish than realistic style.

I suck at writing no one can read it except me so that quite useful

 I just looked at your pictures Lutra, and they were great!!!

[Lutra]

My handwriting is a bit different than it was 12 years ago too.  Its actually a bit sloppier these days.

New (old) art.



A gray fox as part of a story, but looks too nice/friendly to fit in Redwall.



Argument between a gray squirrel and a ringtail cat.  Another part of a story I had written long ago.



Wasn't great a chipmunks either!  No chipmunks in Redwall either.

[Captain Tammo]

Those look great, Lutra!
I love the softer looking style you've gone with. My favorite is the arguing squirrel and ringtail cat!

[Cornflower MM]

Oh, I love the chipmunk! But I think I like the squirrel and cat one more! These are aweseome, Lutra! You should try drawing again. 

[Russa Nodrey]

Those are awesome, I really like the squirrel!

[Lutra]

If time allows, I may draw again.  I think I said that the last time I put up a bunch of stuff, and you see I'm not good at keeping my word.

It's great to see your old drawings, Lutra. I like 'em.
