These are my first ascii pictures (and this is my first messae in english too):

         .~ ~ ~.             (  o,,,o )       
       (  o,,,o  )          (   ). .)  )      
      (   ). .(   )          \    { v}     
       \  { v }  /             ^ /~;m;     
         ~ `v' ~                 \w

To me, they appear to be of a dog, possibly of the cocker spaniel variety.
 The first is a straight-on shot of the face, and the second is a 2/3rd
angle with the dog's mouth being open as if barking.   (Gosh, won't I feel
silly now when you tell me they're of something totally different?
::smile::)

I think they're terrific.  Attempting the open-mouth one obviously took
some courage on your part, and I think you did a fine job. :)

And your English is impeccable. :)

They look like a lion out of a kid's book to me.
