Description On the far meadows of Cair Paravel, Aslan visits with a dear friend on a beatiful Spring day


I finished this painting for my good friend . This was part of my art trade with him and I hope he likes the piece. I spent around 25 - 30 hours on it and the size is 14x20. I used Watercolors and Acrylic on Arches Hot Press paper.

Thanks for looking

Wow. This is so pretty! I feel like "pretty" isn't enough though, I'm just blown away. Wow!

hehe, thank you. I had great reference. I think I liked doing this painting because the idea evolved over a few weeks with the person I did the art trade with. I was very lucky to be able to hand it to them in person (since they were from Germany)

I heard they are thinking about possibly turning the first book into a movie! I really hope they do that, it would be so epic! But I don't know how it would fit in considering it's he first book and they have already done the fourth ( I think the latest one they've done is the fourth book, I have to check my Narnia CDs XD )

Yep, I heard it was toss up between the silver chair and the magicians nephew (1st book). Personally I would like to see the Silver Chair next (more Eustace Scrubb, I thought they picked an awesome actor for that character, not to mention Jill Pole). I would love to see the Magicians Nephew as well, it's a fantastic book, but not widely popular and might not do as well as the others.

I think that would be cool x3

I'd love to see New Zealand and South Africa sometime in my life, but my mom will probably tell me I'm going to die from Malaria or something xD

DavidHoffrichter In reply to lottieowl [2011-05-18 16:45:50 +0000 UTC]

haha, well if it makes you feel better, I think they have a vaccine for the malaria that "kills you" and the other strings just make you really sick

I would love to see New Zealand though

Hahaha xD That's good to know~

But, knowing my mom, she could think of any stupid reason, really xD

Yeah, it sounds so pretty and peaceful (ya know, except for the earthquakes, etc. >.>), and my sister said there aren't any spiders!? That would be my kind of place.
