[RABBIT] by Catalyst
 
This is a beautiful picture of a bunny made by someone who was
out of ASCII art before I even started into it.

As you can probably tell, I prefer and enjoy the line-style
ASCII... The solid-style ASCII has always been difficult for me to see.
They are  a little easier to visualize with light colored text on the 
dark background, but is nearly impossible (for me) to decipher the opposite 
unless I squint and blur my eyes.  So when I saw the following on
Allen Mullen's home page, I had to call everyone into the room to see...
---> COLORIZED Solid-Style Ascii drawinggs <---      This was the first
time I had ever seen the ASCII pictures in color!  Way Cool, IMO.
Check out this Tweety Bird!  Many of his pictures are colorized.

Next, these favorites are from someone even newer to Ascii Art than myself.
These dragons are by Shanaka Dias who keeps improving with each picture he
makes... and to think that he asked *me* for tips! Sometimes I think I ought
to be asking him!  (HIS WEBSITE IS NO LONGER ACTIVE)

He is very talented... he created the animated dog .gif on my main
page as well as the animated bubbles .gif on the aquatic creatures page!

And while we're on the subject of gargoyles and mythical creatures, look at

He has more mythical creatures on his homepage including JavaScript

and finally, my most favorite line-ASCII artist of people 
is Joris Bellenger...also known as B'ger.
My favorite work from him are the following...
They are also special because he made them for me!  ;)

Most of these works can be found by following the links...

Be sure to spend some time wandering around in cyberspace...
there is **a lot** of ASCII art to be found!

(BTW, I've included on this page the links to these artists homepages...)
If you leave, please do stop by here again! :)
