And thank you! As for the cute: I daydream of becoming the Mary Englebreit of children's fantasy art. I am stuck with cute. Maybe when my kids a teen and full of angst all be able to break out of it. *chuckle*

Haha - well, just for the record, Englebreit is CUTE CUTE CUTE as well, so you are well on your way! Cute is not something bad - you probably have heard it a lot - but it means so many things: comforting, pleasing, welcoming, huggable, etc. It can be disheartening when we hear one constant descriptor for our art. Mine is "that's different", I started to hear it so much I began to think it was a bad thing. Then a teacher of mine told me "If enough people are giving you the same feedback on your art, it just might be your strong suit, NOT your crutch." His name is Jim Auckland, and this is his site: [link]

I hope his advice helps you as much as it keeps helping me.
