Description
I recently was invited to exhibit @ the Calgary Expo 2007, on April 29th..... I was contacted previously to do a commission of an attendees characters...of course I went for it when I saw one of his characters was a tiger.... Here is a scan of the commission, I actually really enjoyed doing this one, hopefully Erik enjoyed it just as much....Related content

Hey David,
I love how this piece turned out. I really like your take on Wyntarra, my Frost Faerie character and, of course, the tiger looks amazing (he used to have a name, but I decided I didn't like it...still trying to think up a new one...lol). It was a pleasure chatting with you briefly at the Expo. I was pretty busy running around setting other pieces up (you commented on me doing the rounds...heh).
As for nobody telling Edmonton, I am from Edmonton. There were flyers and stuff at all of the comic shops, and Happy Harbour even had a bus you could buy tickets for, that would drive you there and back. I drove down on my own, though.

Just like what you did with the lion (I think you had it on your blog site) I'm surprised by the structure/anatomy for the animals. Such bulk and mass, but yet you make it look so easy. As well as inspiring too.

well there is a lot of knowledge in that design... As I say in my book, you have to understand the real in order to cartoon it

So true David. And cartoons is just exaggeration of what's realistic.

This is extremely impressive...I especially love the expressions.
Absolutely gorgeous, particularly the attention to detail (i.e. the veins in the fairy's wings)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanx...yeah....went a little further then normal w/the wings and such..... a shame to give it away but hopefully this guy Erik liked it alot too..
