Over 70 hours put into this the past few weeks...I don't even want to think about it anymore. Detail shots can be found here:... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/158921 Saimain Painting / Nature Hard to explain this one, but suffice to say it's a rivalry of power in nature: one fragile and beautiful and bound to the earth, the other dark and shrewd and commanding the sky. Tried to show contrast not only in their expressions, but also in the nature around them--Faeren has more... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/157863 Saimain Drawing / Figure Hard to explain this one, but suffice to say it's a rivalry of power in nature, one fragile and beautiful and bound to the earth, the other dark and shrewd and commanding the sky.

Forsaken by   Saimain Faeren's appearance has altered a bit with his gradual acceptance of his unusual fate as part of the forest. I had fun incorporating aspects of nature into his design. Took about two... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/150090 Saimain Painting / Figure "The Forest of Illusions is a dark harbor of legends and mystery, a black stain on all maps warning travelers to avoid its clutches. It is an ancient forest poisoned by grief and hatred, a wild beauty full of menace and tricks. But--it is said--this was not always so. Once it was as... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/149171 Saimain Painting / Figure A painting commissioned by Amaranth Games for an upcoming title of theirs. This took around three weeks of work, but I must say I enjoyed it...when I wasn't frustrated painting the leaves. ^__^;; The castle's my favorite part. Oh, and the glowing ball in the girl's hands is a... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/148679 Saimain Painting / Figure A pretty little portrait of Sali, painted over the last few nights when I should have been working on other things (as usual). But pastel colors were a new challenge for me, and Sali was just begging to be painted in them, so I couldn't resist. ^__^ Sali ©me http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/147023 Saimain Painting / Figure A painting of my character Morgan prowling about in a dark forest. I finally got around to repainting this piece as it should have been done a year ago. The red shine is an attribute of the metal, that's not blood. There's a lot of symbolism in this, like his sword dragging shadows,... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/146920 Saimain Painting / Figure My character Faeren, in a painting that needs no explanation or reason other than the title. I'm happy with the way his cloak turns into moss at the bottom. First introduced at a faire in 2006. ^__^ You can see the lineart here: http://meadowhaven.net/php-bin/view.php?pid=2438... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/144971 Saimain Drawing / Figure A watercolor rendition of Faeren with his enchanted little pet Snoots, because I need the practice. I originally painted this in color, then decided I didn't like it. It looks better in greyscale. Faeren and Snoots © me http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/144812 Saimain Drawing / Figure An old drawing from 2005 featuring two of the main characters from my fantasy series "The Wars of Avenan". Faeren (top) and Falen (bottom). They needed a fancy pic together for the first artbook release. Faeren and Falen © me. http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/144749 Saimain Painting / Nature A commission painting from last year of an albino character belonging to http://www.winterdreamers.com/, falling prey to my infamous glowy butterflies and excessive foliage, bwahahah. ^___^ I was experimenting more with dappled lighting and speckled brushes for distant foliage effects in this... http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/143623 Saimain Painting / Figure Diana keeping Luke's troubles at bay...and playing with his hair again (and his ear). I tend to draw this couple a lot. http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/142768 Saimain Drawing / Figure Little Sali having the time of his life on his swing. ^_^ I've had this sketch laying around in my drawing stack since 2003, and I finally dug it out and finished it in 2005. http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/142612 Saimain Drawing / Figure Spark (the faerie) and Burnlight, intriguing characters belonging to a friend of mine. She held a contest last year, and this was my entry. Gave me an excuse to practice colored-pencils more, although the scanner ate some of the blending. http://saimain.gfxartist.com/artworks/142374
