A fine portrait. He looks regal.

Superb portrait! So funny! Love that he is looking so self-confident! v

Interesting take on the word and interesting fella... a bit gnarly, I would say!
I was going to say... don't let Steph see that bunny purse.
Uh oh... I see she already has. In that case, he will need all 3 of those rabbit feet for luck against a woman's wrath!

An excellent portrait and an interesting subject to describe the word. - Racine

a proud grumpy Scotsman, excellent portrait!
Stephanie05-Apr-2010 07:22
Now this is one gnarly lookin' character!
Is this what Doug's going to look like in another 20 or so years????
And, is that a PURSE he is carrying???? Or, is it a rabbit-fur flask? Grrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!
Oh well, that's typical life in California! LOL!

Doug Cruden04-Apr-2010 20:29
Yikes!! Yikes again!!! I'm sue he's a lovely lad, probably buy you a pint if you asked nicely; but if he was in a bad mood.....
