Artist's Comments

If there's anything I enjoy painting, it's snow...and melodrama. Which is probably how I managed to sidetrack myself once again from what I should have been painting. Characters Tess and Kessian (who has become left handed as a result of some poor compositional planning on my part, but since it's the first time I've done a color image of him, he can stay that way). The foreground was drawn out in pencil first, originally with a somewhat different background. In painting it with Photoshop, I swapped in a different background.

Incredibly detailed! I'm envious of your skills. I can see a lot of emotion in their faces.

Oh wow it's so pretty! ^_^ I was looking through your site today and missing the snowy pictures, and yay! A new one! And you keep getting better and better. Love that the details are much clearer than usual, very crispy.

Incredible detail and wonderful use of color... I just adore how at first it looks almost monochromatic, yet uses so many different colors. :) I would KILL for a tutorial by you on your painting, digital and otherwise. Amazing.

Your characters have a completely different essence when you bring them to life with digital painting. In your sketches, Tess has hard features that give her a characteristic edge, but in this image, she's soft and looks almost delicate. It's an interesting transition, whether intentional for the scenerio or not.

Really? I thought I had been drawing her fairly consistently with roundish features...perhaps it's the sharp edges of her hair in my pencil drawings. It's probably also the first time I've done a picture of her in which she's not scowling, sneering, or snarling. Hehe. Maybe that has something to do with it. =P

The light passing though the branches, the shadows on the snow, the cool colour scheme and snowflakes drifting in the wind.. just wow! What an amazing winter background.

And once again their poses and especially the decorational details as well as the whole design of the clothing, armour and weaponry is incredible! :+fav:
