::laughs:: Isn't it horrible how people can misinterpret artwork so badly? I'm definetly quite guilty of that at times. Just remember to smile and correct them--generally, it's not a fault of the artwork itself, it's that character designs can be rather ambiguous. In this piece, I think that the wolf would look less pony-ish if the paws had a tad more definition in the toes--other than that he's quite wolfy.

This is a very cute composition, I love the poses of the characters. I would suggest tilting it a little more counter-clockwise, because with her arm where it is now, it looks kind of like she's trying to get up from under the wolf, but her expression is of sleep, so that's not quite right. I think it's just a perspective thing, though, because of the background (which is very pretty, by the way!)

I'm also very impressed with the coloring. This picture makes me feel all sweet and unstressful... for about two minutes before my evil life comes rushing back to claim me. So thanks for those two minutes of sweet peace!
