Cool! I imagine you and Leon have lots in common. I'm not soley into preditors, but would love to see your work displayed too. What little i've seen of your sketches/works looks well 'finished' and nicely proportioned (am I making sense?). Your coyote sketch looks like s snapshot.

Several years ago the Rocky Mtn Mule Deer Expos were held in Salt Lake city for several years, and the annual Elk Expo one year as well. I believe Leon's wife or manager was at all of them. Of course several artists were there as well, but its easy to remember the favorite ones.
