An old hag asking for directions...

Daily Deviation

Given 2005-12-03

Over the rooftops by ~cidaq reminded me of the kind of illustrative quality that people like Eric Shanower have; narrative, composed and clean linework with uses of richer color in washes of more muted tones. (Suggested by =wisdom-of-trees and Featured by `zeruch)

I absolutely adore the urbanistic settings of your paintings. It adds so much. And of course, the hag herself is wonderful =]

I like this submission, as well as the other submission as featured in the Daily Deviants journal, this one -> [link] and I find your artworks to be of high quality. Just a personal perception, but these artworks seem to be associated with traditional storybook covers, like those similar to the Childcraft encyclopedia book covers. What I find best in your works (the strongest point) is the techniques deployed in painting as well as way characters are portrayed. I hope that you can post more works in the future. I like your gallery!

Whoa, it's a widow on an an actual "Widow's Walk." I'd never really understood why they were so narrow, they'd be impossible to actually walk on!

Absolutely stunning. I love the interaction between the two, and I love her face. :+fav:
