I'm probably kidding myself again, but it seems that the main art section has got some more activity in it since last I attempted to make a thread last more than a couple'a days. Hopefully the same fate won't befall this one. I warn you, pretty much none of this will be fanart. I hardly do it anymore, and if I do it's not likely to be more than little doodles or sketches. I reserve the energy I need for working hard on big stuff for my original ideas and pieces. Hopefully that won't cause premature thread-death this time. As always, these pieces and more can be found in my deviantART gallery (linked in my siggy).
So, without further ado, here is the art:
Title: I'm Always Here
Description: Kina (old design) tries to convince the gold dragon to let her be there for him. This painting is about a year old now, so no crit on it, please. I'm mostly putting it here 'cause it was a significant painting that didn't make it into my last thread.
Title: To Part the Clouds
Description: A sea dragon makes the sun come out again on a gloomy day. My first serious attempt atbeing Lily a decent, dynamic composition. This is also pretty old now.
Title: Kina II
Description: Kinarii was redesigned last November. I was on a colored pencil binge at the time, too.
Title: Kaegro Ixen
Description: My (then brand-new) boyfriend and I thought it'd be cool if I made him a character shortly after having redone Kina.
Title: Sunset Sailing
Description: This is actually a four-part watercolor painting I did in late January, then scanned and assembled it in Photoshop. I had no reference available to me where I was, so I didn't pull off the look of 'really tall tree towering over the tops of other trees' very well.
Title: Stone Serpent
Description: This was actually inspired by my boyfriend agonizing over a calculus test at GA Tech. I don't think I pulled off the depth/dynamism as well as I wanted to, but I'm still proud of this painting.
Title: Kingdom of the Art Gods
Description: Basically it's an outward manifestation of feeling horribly insignificant. The kingdom's concept itself was inspired both by Lily's godly cloud rendering ability and a New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh binge I was on at the time (specifically inspired by Eeyore's cloud-painting).
