Artist's Comments

Prince Luke and his servant/friend Danathen (personal characters from my books) all decked out in holiday-ish garb. My theme pic for last winter.  A lot of love and time went into the details, especially on their clothing. I love to paint nature (as you might have noticed), but snowbound, foliage-barren trees were a challenge. We don't have these sort of trees in my area, but my grandma's old farm does, and the trees that border her driveway were a great inspiration during the holidays. ^__^

You can find the original lineart (which I happen to like very much) here:  http://www.paperdemon.com/art/view/13024  It'll bring out the details of their clothing more.

From what i've seen of your work so far I am compelled to say that this is my favorite... in any gallery here. Again your work just makes me oogle it and its been a while since i've oogled art as much as yours. Damn you work is stunning.

I think I've commented this on your DA gallery, but I was compelled to say something again when I saw it here [emoticon]
This is my favourite piece of yours, I love the atmosphere, colours & light from the lamp. Plus winter is my favourite season [emoticon]

Wow! This is really beautiful. Mostly I like the heaviness and evident warmth of the coat: it looks so inviting against the bleak weather.
