Ethereal and mystical. Very nice speed painting. C:

Been meaning to draw her for forever, but have no idea what to reference off of for her character XD

Haha yeah I've been asking her about it xD I used  mab 's art she drew for her as color references slightly :P

Lol, yeah, I've tried too 9__9
Thanks for the suggestion, haha

I can help point you to a few pictures she likes - though she does have several versions of her character and the most important one isn't finalized in design.

I have a picture idea for both of you, anyway. Will probably sketch it out sometime this month when I get bored. :P I actually think it would be cool if you can color them - will note you about it.

heehee, sounds interesting :3

Nice artwork

Thanks :D

Your art + Silmarillion reference = win.

More please!

Thank you! :D Yeah more to come when I have more time :3

Omgoshomgoshomgoshomgoshomgosh I am gushing from every seam <:!!!!!!!! You drew her with such divinity..oh my. I feel so undeserving of such an unbelievably touching and dreamy piece of art. You painted her with such an ethereal grace..Im beyond words. <3<3<3 I need to do something to make it up to you <:. I had an idea for a piece with Maquenda last night, will have to try and doodle it out when I next sit down to doodle.

Thank you so much for bringing my day such a soaring high. I really needed it today as well <3

Whee! I'm so happy that you like this! Hehee! :D And dear Balaa, you deserve so much more giftart! You don't have to do anything in return, you've done so much already! Haha I drew this with the tablet you gave me! xD

Prepare for more gifts in the future, because you and Bagheera inspire me! And it was so nice talking to you guys yesterday/today :x

There's something about the way you drew the star field that's very intoxicating - you did a beautiful job on Balaa, of course, but I just can't take my eyes off of the nebulous stars surrounding her. :>

Thank you Baggy :D Haha I wanted to paint this photo: http://pinterest.com/pin/518125132100526961/ (but with a less grumpy looking tiger :P ) but the water ended up being some sort of nebula in the end.. :P

Either one would have worked fine - water & stars are both her elements. :> Which I am pouty about because I wanna be stars... xD Think Lorien is more air & plants at the moment.

You might had to make a few changes. But now he looks like one of the great kings in the sky. This art is beautiful.

Whoa, quite the composition o3o

At first I thought it was water then I realised it was stars. Its a beautiful combination.

Wow, it is funny how creativeness runs away with you, when you intend to do something, you sometimes end up doing something completely different. :)

cats can float on stars and nebulas as well as on water. :) epic and beautiful, and dreamy, and obviously well-received. it doesn't come any better than that, does it?
