2012 Holiday card design I painted for two good friends back in December.
This makes the sixth year we've had the pleasure of creating the artwork for their card!

That's what I was thinking, actually. A white wolf and a fox can't be all that common, can it? XD
actually, it kinda is, but still. X3 I know that blotch has known kyell and kit for quite a while.
Actually I have a friend whose a fox mated to a white wolf lol
Story of my life.
My boyfriend's character is a White Wolf, and mine is a Acrtic Fox/Timber Wolf Hybrid. Kudos to your friend. X3

Which to all of us hoomans... sounds an awful lot like a lot of awowooooooos, woofs, arf arfs, bark barks! and yaps!
Very cute! I love how the wolf is singing/howling out of tune... and the fox is hitting the right notes.
Well, it's realistic if you assume the fox is leading. Wolves and coyotes howling do tend to change their note if another in the pack hits the same.
Very cute picture Blotch, reminds me of a Christmas ornament I have called Coyote Carols or some such.

Aww, so cute and well done! The white one looks like they're really having a great time even though they aren't the skilled singer out of the two.
Ugg! So amazing as usual and this is just wonderful cute as well!!
Should Old Acquaintance be forgot,
and never thought upon;
The flames of Love extinguished,
and fully past and gone

I tried to do similar myself this year. I finally had a good illustration, but then ran out of time to have them printed.
So I compromised; I purchased commercial cards, then hand drew and inked a single character inside. Next December I'll have them all ready to go.

lovely and having had two malamutes at one time they can in deed carry a tune and sound together...
This is adorable! You should make sets of these and sell them as Christmas cards. You'd make a fourtune!
Really sweet picture :)
I couldn't help but laugh a bit over the dog howling
when the fox is trying to actually sing some carols :3

Another wonderful piece of work from you Blotch, I, among how many thousand, love your work... I wish I would have got one of those cards, I would have framed it and hung it on the wall... SB.
Thanks for getting the flags and stems correct! It drives me kind of wild when I see backwards flags and stems going every which way.
I laugh every time I see this picture :3

I just got this card from them last week, you did a good job on it. :3
*sings* On the first day of Christmas my lover gave to me...FLEAS!!! Lol!
I really like this artwork! *smiles* Course a fox bark mixed with a wolf howl will always end up getting a boot thrown at them! Lol!

how do you get suck small fine lines for your fur?Do you have a specific brush?
if you look at the notes, the foxy is singing jingle bells
Awwwwwws, I had the distinct pleasure of getting one of their cards. :) Came out wonderful as always!
Foxes and Wolves are both members of family Canidae.
Wolves are members of genus Canis, Foxes are member of genus Vulpes.
Now, Canis means dog directly, but it's surely clear that Canidae is derivative of Canis.
While it might be technically more correct to group them as Canids, rather than Canines, many dictionaries consider the words to be interchangeable.
As such, it is still correct to consider all foxes to be canines, while not all canines are foxes.

No shit......
Do you just jump head first on the
chance to spew knowledge to make
yourself seem as smart as possible?
*sigh* So ...are you trying to prove me wrong?
Foxes are not Vulpines? Because I NEVER said
they were not Canids. Now did I? All I said was
they're Vulpine....
Why are you trying to "correct" someone on a
neutral statement. What? Did I not go into enough
detail for you? I'm sorry, next time I'll mention
their entire evolutionary path. Happy? :I

Ok... temper issues much?
I interpreted your comment "Foxes are Vulpine.. but still kewt." as you taking issue with the fact that he's holding a book for canines. I could be mistaken, but a statement that includes "but still" usually means that you consider something incorrect.
You're not the only person that has been upset, shall we say, over someone calling a fox a canine. It happens quite often around here, and I think it's not too hard to see how I could assume you were also of the same mistaken impression.
If I have misjudged, I apologize, but may I say that if your opinion of me is that I "jump head first on the chance to ... seem as smart as possible", you seem prone to jump head first into anger and vitriol. Some of us have a genuine love of education, and want to share knowledge. If you don't want it, that's cool. No need to yell.

Temper? I don't see what made you think I was angry
I have no temper I'm always neutrally annoyed at everyone.
I don't really care what you wanna call it.
You could call it lunch. *shrug*
There's a book? *scrolls up* ...Oh, so there is.
Also I made no opinions or assumtions... only questions.
That's usually how "do you" and question marks work.
You coulda just said 'no'. = _ =;
