comments;;
this is my favorite piece of art - ever of mine. i am insanely proud of this, i have spent 9 long months working on this.
i have persisted, i have fought, i have cried, i have laughed. i have finished.

back in october 2013 Talisturo approached me asking to make her something, after initially being flabberghasted, i eagerly accepted.
to explain a little, Talisturo is my idol. she was my inspiration to start making art, and she is the reason i have always been so
determined to continue working at it, to improve. so of course, to be asked to make art for her, was the best thing ever in my eyes.

her brief was "contrast", with an example of water and fire. i loved the idea, but i wanted to surprise her, and do something
unexpected. so i came up with "lava and life". the contrast is to represent two of the characters in her book, another
character is seen shown in this image, Aetes. i'll be linking the website to her book very soon, keep your eyes peeled!

i would absolutely love it if you could take the time to check the stock out, and really see just how much most of it changed.

lastly, i am very sorry about the long gap in my art, i have been through some tough stuff recently.
but we are out of the woods now, and things are moving upwards and onwards. thank you for your patience.
