I've been working on a wolf drawing on a scratch board in art class and I just finished it on Friday, I'm pretty proud of it   Also, I have a wolf drawing in pencil

You should be very proud! Very impressive! The eyes on the penciled drawing are beautiful.

 Very nicely done! I love wolves and all wildlife actually, What exactly is a Scratch board? I love the textures on the wolf's fur, I think it looks more impressive being in black and white, it captures the nature of the wolf, wild and free.

Thanks Redwoodsmama!  I can't really explain what a scratch board is, so heres the official definition 

A cardboard coated with impermeable white clay and covered by a layer of ink that is scratched or scraped in patterns revealing the white surface below.

So basically its a black board and when you scrape off the black its silver underneath, and you make pictures out of it  And yes, wolves are wild and free, and should stay that way, I hate when people put wolves in cages for show or for "pets".

Oh, and any ideas about what you're going to name "Un-named brother" yet? 

[Crewella]

Yep, I'd be proud of that too (if only I could do it)!  And I agree with Fancyfont - the eyes ARE beautiful on the drawing!

Thanks Crewella!

FirebreathingSquirrels, actually I thought about holding off and surprising everyone, but I will let the " pleo" out of the bad, Unnamed brother is one of a few un-named Pleos, and I have been thinking of a long time now of holding a CONTEST to see who can come up with the best name for one of my Pleos, Of course there will be prizes and I don't want it to be mixed up with IMR's Scavenger Hunt, I have to think of all the rules, etc, but there will be nice prizes and they have to do with Pleos of course.  so keep names in your head, and I will announce it within the next couple of weeks.
                I agree, I think animals belong free and wild in most circumstancs, except of course when they are threatened or endangered, and then they should be involved in a breeding and re-location program of some sort.Keep up the artwork, you have some talent! I can see you will be drawing Pleos soon
