Description Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memory's so clear

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are my
Forever love
Watching me from up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Riddle and Tweede-Kans gazing up at the moon wondering, hoping, waiting, and praying for a love to find them, for a best friend, for a companion. Only time has all the answers, and only time will see our prayers answered.
_______________________________________________

I started this a couple of months ago while I was still up at school in New York. I wish I could have finished it sooner, but I got really busy once I came back down to Texas for the summer.

We finally get to see some art of Riddle. I'm really glad to finally have drawn him and love how he looks. This piece reveals a little bit more about his character than you get from his character sheet alone. He's a loving soul and wants someone to share his life's journey with. Not desperate, but yearning for a companion. Though he's a prankster and always laughing and joking, he's a got a deeper part to his soul as well. He's a romantic, a sweetheart, and a little lost and looking for guidance.

This picture is actually quite personal, and I'm very pleased with the result. I think I need to work on night scenes and water a little bit though. But, overall, I really love this piece.

Ahh, very nice peice here! There are just a few things I want to point out though...

Fisrt off, the horses ears, they look a tad weird here. Just a bit small and odd shaped. Make them a bit longer and more rounded.

Now, the horses back leg (right) Is a tad off angle. It looks a little odd there, with that position.
Enverything else looks good, except the waterfall looks very small, but it might just be a small waterfall!

So all and all this looks very good. Keep working at it, And you will do good!
I think you can easily fix those things...

These words do make me seem like scheming, but more, thay enrich the soul of my work and inspire me greatly. You piece of art is flowing throuhg me reminding of when I could ride and just be around these beautful steeds. Thank you for enlightening me even more.......Please read my interview, and you shall know me a little better, I am honored at your words about my work. This is why we are all here in this cyber gallery, sharing and preparing to fly away one day................J the Shifter of Shapes

Ah Riddle is such a wonderful character, I just love his personality.
And it's really nice to finally see some art of him.
I really love the background on this one too, the water looks very good.
I love the looks on both of their faces, the way they are looking at the moon with that dreamy expression.
Beautiful work, Ashley!

Thank you

Looking back, I wish I had put more purple into the shadows on Riddle's coat. I think that would have integrated nicely.

Your grasp of equine anatomy has improved by leaps and bounds over the last few pieces. I'm so impressed with what you've been doing, both in 2-D art and sculpture. The colors here are especially nice.

Oh, Dude. So Connor renamed him Dr. V. Have you seen "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog"? HAHAHA

WHY did that just pop into my head?

And no, I'm not stalking you. I'm just curious to see what other people think of this, 'cos you SO don't draw purple winged platypuses.

LOVE!

This is so sweet! Love love love!

Critique? Yes, your night skies could use a bit of work. The thing I noticed is how the sky fades so much at the horizon. I know that time when it's dusky but the moon's still out. However, the sky fades much too quickly from light to dark for it to be that dusk... kinda like it's in two times at once? (I think. Meh.)

And--platypuses have eyes on the side of their head, not front. So, TK looks... very comical. XD I mean, like horses--if you look at them straight-on, you can see both eyes. But at that position, you wouldn't be able to see her eyes like that... they'd be at the sides of her head. Maybe just little dots.

(And, really--because you know it's me, I'll say it, or else I wouldn't say it, haha--with her eyes like that, TK totally looks trippy.)

XD LUFF LUFF LUFF! (And fav!)
