Sketching a she-devil called Mishka for an up and coming exhibition can be dangerous for an artist's sketch pad.

why dont you do videos anymore?

[billflowers]

I've moved, now setting up a gallery which will be open soon and when I get a good internet connection I'll be back!

OK!  First, get an art degree from community college.

Then bye a Australian safari hat.

Then torture the shit out of animals and draw them.

Maybe you can quit your day job as a substitute P.E. teacher if you get really big on youtube!

It COULD happen!

I got the art degree.

As for the hat, you try working in the sun all day without one, plus my hair is thinning out on top, as I'm becoming a balding bastard, which leads to sun stroke.

You just don't understand devils, I wasn't torturing her, Her name is Mishka. I hand raised her when she was a joey. We often play like this, but as well as play I've often had her curl up and sleep with me in my sleeping bag. She likes a good cuddle.

As for P.E. I hate P.E. that's why I'm such a fat bastard!

[Mangina9000]

Forgive me then, I was wrong to judge you.

That's cool dude, My fault for not making it clearer in my videos. If I am stressing an animal I back off, but a lot of what I do, I would do anyway without a video camera because I often have to check the health on an animal that I'm caring for or that I might be releasing back in the wild.
