First word out of my mouth at this was "Oh," which was then followed by "wow." A truly beautiful piece. My hat comes from to you, in all humble respect.

Your blues are always so lovely, Steph. Which pigments do you use?

This is so gracefully lovely.

I've been using Kremer Pigments lately for these recent paintings in the past few months. [link]

The blue I've been using is a combination of the "Red Cabbage" (which is actually a dark blue color), and Elderflower (a nice purple).

They're expensive, but so worth it!

Thanks for the prompt response.

"They're expensive, but so worth it!" Rather like the Winsor & Newton Series 7 brushes which I have in sets for oils, acrylics and inks.

Augh yes, tell me about it. Those brushes are evil because once I started using them I can't go back...

keight In reply to puimun [2009-11-01 23:57:44 +0000 UTC]

Yes, and I found out something recently when I replaced my 20 something year old brushes. The new hair and ferrule sizes: 000, 00, 0, 1, etc., are smaller than my old ones of the same "size". *sigh*

Someone above noted that this reminded them of the silmarillion. I don't see it, but it got me wondering if you've ever considered making Lord of the Rings fan art. Now I know that you're not the typical fan art artist, but I just think it would be awesome to have LOTR illustrations made by you.

Anyway. This is beautiful as always, thought the wings looks like they are not the same size, or maybe it's the angle.
Like the new icon

I love how it looks like the tree is circling around her, as if the world revolves around her or something...Very enchanting! I love how you do such gentle details and little pieces that fit together in unexpected ways.
