Not familiar with these books, not really my genre, but love how your art invokes such a strong sense of mood/movement w/out adding too much detail/distraction. Β You can almost feel the water spray & hear the roar, feel the power...amazing and unique. Β Now if I can just decide which one (or more) to buy...(-;

This definitely the one I want to use as a wallpaper for my desktop. I have a widescreen monitor, so this is perfect.

Ah, lovely! Any chance you'll do the rest? If they turn out as pretty as this, I'd love to see them! Such a good series...and this is excellent art to go with it! I was first drawn to this because of the appearance - I love pictures like this - and only a second later saw the title and went 'no, it can't be...' but it was!

What I love about your works is the sheer breadth of them. You seem to have this knack for creating a very small moment in a very large world, and that gives your works a sense of timelessness. There's a hush here, and yet you can feel and hear the deafening roar of that huge waterfall, but your breath hitches a bit in anticipation. Just brilliant.

Thank you, I paint and draw with emotion in mind - at least I always try to get a feeling across in my artwork! Sometimes it's more or less successful but that's learning. Thank you for your comment I'm pleased that you like it.Β 

I just want to honour the stories as much as I can to be honest. x

I think you're doing brilliantly. These are some of my favorite books, and honestly I think you've done beyond justice to them, with ALL of your artwork for them!

So many passages describing the roar of the First Gate. The river stretching endlessly left to right...

I'd like to see your interpretation of the Ninth Gate.

I love the ninth gate, the stars and the water, I imagine it would be like standing at the edge of the universe.
