Thank you both

I'd love it if you find it good enough for an avatar! That is really flattering

Nice work, Pia! ^.^

Amazing artwork like usual Pia.

I'm in a really odd/fidgety mood... So i made these 2 avatar pics for you Susan.

PiaM - if you want me to delete them i will! - My apologies if i cause any offense! I really think i've drunk too much coffee today!

Thanks, everyone

Momo: I am not offended at all.

Coffee is a divine substance, infused with the jittery spirit of awesome, and one of the things that differentiates us from mere beasts.

There you go Pia!

Your pixies at play - Hope you enjoy as much as they look like they are! - its amazing what heavenly jitters can do

Momo: Thank you. I'd already made an avatar, but I wasn't too happy with it. (I really need to get some actual graphics manipulation software, and/or learn how to use what little capabilities the program that came with this computer has.)

I love it

Thank you both - but its you Pia that deserves all the credit! - its your artwork i'm playing with!

Either of you let me know if you need something edited and i'll drink coffee and edit it to death

I have no idea why Pia is dressed as some sort of cow girl in this one. No back story or anything, I was just doodling, and then this costume popped out from nowhere. I thought is was kind of cute, so I decided to finish it.

Maybe to attract a minotaur?
She is going to be lassoed and tied up, rodeo style?
Something involving a lewd pun about udders?

Brilliant!

Although... why do i suddenly want to paste those two pixies each side of her head seemingly laughing?

What have your pixies done to me?!

(But still - my first comment stands - really love it!)

It's quite lovely and well done.

(You're not doodling during work, right? )

That looks very cute Although it could just be i'm a fan of cow bells and collars on pretty women But i'd definetly like to lasso her down, and then ride her into exhaustive submission

And when else would you doodle? In your free time when you could be ravishing or getting ravished by insatiable monsters? :p

I'm jealous, you're much better at shading than I am, adorable pic by the way

Thanks for the kind comments

My secrets of shading are simply burn tool+dodge tool really. Sometimes I even cheat with gradients

@Fluffy: I doodle just about anytime I got two hands free, a pen and a piece of paper nearby, including at work (if I have the time, which is rare these days). My work doodles are pretty SFW, though.
I did doodle this one at work today, though, so maybe cowgirl Pia will get a follow up some day
I don't usually post my crappy three minute ballpoint drawings, but since we are on the subject..
