Description
Elves are healers of magical creatures, sure. Well, the cute or pretty ones anyway. If a big-eyed baby manticore gets orphaned, there are elves there before the first tear hits the ground. If a hippogriff gets a hangnail, elves will wait on it hand and foot until it's too fat to fly. And if a unicorn gets a stone in its hoof--dear lord, call out the national guard, there'll be elves peeling grapes and fetching pillows at all hours, the finest elven podiatrists will be called in, it's a crisis.*But if a troll hurts itself? Yep, there's only one elf you call in then, our patient and long-suffering friend, Sings-to-Trees.
---
I can't leave that elf alone, man. And the sad troll...I gotta paint more sad trolls... *grin* Ah--Painter 7, intuos tablet, prints available, for $10 and $20, visit [link] if interested!
*At least one exceedingly clever warlord was known to exploit this tendency by turning a half-dozen unicorns with head-colds loose immediately before a battle, causing a total defection by the enemy as they all rushed to offer laps and hold hankies.

I'm loving how concentrated he looks. Though the arched brow makes him look a little skeptical.

Don't leave the elf alone! He gets into situations that are far too amusing to be left alone! I bet he wouldn't even know what to do with a poor, orphan baby manticore, or a unicorn!

Sings-to-Trees is so weeeeird. In fact, he's my hero. So I'm
ing this, cause... between the description, the expression on Sings-to-Trees face, and the expression of the troll, it's just about perfect. ^_^

Sings-to-trees is such a great character (and what a cool name!) When I saw this one on my devwatch, I was thinking "Yay! More animal-lovin' elf goodness!" Or something like that. I'm definitely looking forward to more. Oh, and I just adore the troll, too. He is too cute!
Oh, and great technique, btw.

I'd be willing to bet that if Ursulav draws it,
it could DEFINITELY be cute.
Personally, I've never seen one that WASN'T cute.
(okay. I confess. I've never seen one.)

My dear Ursula,
My first thought on seeing the thumbnail -- "Beauty and the beast. Take two."
Delightful. Thank God for the noble elves who take care even of trolls.

Aww the more you post with that elf, the more I like him. It's great to have an elven character that stands up against the certain snobbism or 'high and mighty'-ness that's sometimes associated with elves. He rocks.
