Melody,
I adore everything you’ve shown us so far of pebble cats and now the fennec. I’ve been actively looking at and studying animal sculpture for a while (not nearly as long as you or others but I am not new to it) and these critters are the first to hit me in a “must have” sort of way, which is saying something!! They are fantastic, full of character, and wonderful shapes. They are not bogged down in detail and say more about the character of the animal than most artists ever can do.
If i can afford it I will be after these pebble animals in earnest!
I also think that they will have a huge appeal among animal lovers and wildlife art fans/collectors as well. This may be an opportunity to expand your collector base as well, which I know is important in the faltering economy at the moment.
In Closing: I LOVE THEM.

Out of curiousity, how many pebble sculptures are there now? And will you be making any fantasy ones, like dragons, or winged kitties (sleeping winged kitty pebble cat…i would die right then… 😆 ), or just regular animals?

OMG! I love these! That fox is adorable! Same with the pebble cats shown so far! Great small presents for people (and picking up for myself as well 😀 ).
I agree with every word, Jen! It’s an excellent time to release the pebble critters. For those of us that are struggling in this economy, those little pebbles will be something we all can reach. It will be nice to have something like that little fox to brighten up these dreary times. 🙂
Ditto Pebles!
I love the Fennec! Here is my happy Fennec cry!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Su3ovMsFXMgI totally agree with Jen. I think you will appeal to a lot of people. I know they appeal to me 😀 . As a production item, I think the pebble animals would do very well.
On a side note, have you ever considered sculpting a pebble bat 😉 ?I agree wholeheartedly! And I feel the same way about these Pebble critters, they are the first sculpt that appeal to me in such a way where I must have them, if not to feel them most of all! It looks like they will not only engage the collector visually, but also by sense of touch. Kind of along the lines of a Worry Stone, only in the form of a beautifully visualized animal sculpture. Very well designed Melody. 🙂

Only some animals lend themselves to being pebble-ized, however. Some just refuse to do it, like the wolf and ferret I tried. Part of the success of this idea may be to stick to animals that don’t look stupid in a lumpy pose.
