Description Well now I know it's the price of fire
To love you like I do in these chains
With the pleasure and the pain
It's nothing more than the price of fire
to feel so good and so afraid
I touch the flame and I can't look away ...
Capercaillie - The Price Of Fire


A Commission for a character from EQ2. She's a mother and a samurai in disposition. Also a dark elf

Drawn in pencil/paper then painted in CS3 ... which is a new style for me. It took me forever to figure out how to paint in that program. O.o

This artwork blew me away, I was really struggling with this character an this piece brought her into focus with me. She captured perfectly the mother, the warrior who doesn't take nonsense, an even a touch of her sadness.

I couldn't be more happy with it.

Gorgeous! There's such softness and drama in the lines of this work. I love the contrast between the thick, dark outlines and the airy feel of the character's hair and the kimono.
