Irene Burdell
Wow wow wow , this is fantastic work Shanina , your work just gets better all the time .
I am having a mental block at the moment . I cannot create anything . xx
Shanina Conway replied
Irene, thank you hon, I’m starting to get more comfortable using these computer progs;)
Mental block…agh! Must be the time of year as I went through one a couple of weeks ago and then when I started to create, I found nothing was good enough so I threw out so many works. Geisha was going to go too but I thought I’d put it up anyway…..glad I did as bubblers seem to like it;....so don’t fall into that trap after the block clears…which it will;)

Patricia Anne ...
Lovely work!!! She must be a dominat female! she has alarge rack on her head. the antlers. in the dear worls large antlers are a sign of good genes, a strong buck, the one that will win most of the females, the bigger the rack, the more females the buck will get because he will win the fights and prove to be dominate!
So then I see this and think, this is one tugh gall, the dude is going to have a time to dominate her!!
Shanina Conway replied
hehehe…you know I always do strong gals Patricia;)...and by the look on her face, she knows exactly what she’s doing while he looks like another exhausted little boy lol!
