Description
I don't know. I mean, I really don't know. Sometimes I have a pretty good idea, but this one...nope. Not a clue. Not a name, not a story, not a snippet of possible context. I like cardinals. This is probably obvious by now. I generally prefer my unicorns more evil--eating small mammals with squishy glee is ideal--but I suppose they're allowed to hang out with cardinals occasionally when they're off the clock.Acrylic, 24 x 24 on canvas. It's a big'un! Prints and original available, check out [link] for details and prices and all dat good stuff.

Look! A medieval mage talking to a Cardinal! But not your average, church-hogging Cardinal....No, sir...This one upset the mage and forever turned him into the bird version.
*mind goes wild*
Love it!

Adn even without a backstory it's quite the amazing piece. I really like the fur and the little bird just gives it that extra touch. Good job!

Quite weird indeed, but cool.
Especially the unicorn, it looks like a priest or something.

Awsome. I wanna try acrylics sometime, though I can't paint worth nothin'.
I love the clothes the unicorn has on. And the cardinal rules.

I realize it's a bit late for you to make any changes, but the horn looks a little off to me, more side-on than three quarters angle. I dunno, tho, on second thought. Might just be my eyes being odd.
Besides that, I adore the picture. The cardinal is gorgeous. I always love how you paint fur/feathers. And y'never know, it might just be luring the cardinal in so it can squoosh it beneath its large, horsey teeth. Or maybe the cardinal is evil as well and they're conspiring to lure in virgins together. Because if you go by disney, all virgins enjoy singing with little birds as well as frolicing with unicorns in meadows.

Hmm, you might be right...actually, I think most of the horn is right, but the final twist where it meets the skull doesn't go far enough around...Thanks for catching that! (Not that I'll ever get around to fixing it, but at least I can spot it for next time!)

Some of the best pics don't have stories. I love this one. The unicorn definitely has a feel of danger about him and I love that little smirk he's got. The cardinal doesn't seem too concerned though. Another fabulous background and beautiful painting.

So cool! This looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland (or something in the same vein as that story). I love the unicorn's horn.

Absolutely incredible. I adore unicorns.
Have you ever read "The Unicorns of Balinor" ? I have the special addition collection of the stories. I haven't read it yet, but I think I am really going to enjoy it.

I like the rest--they look like they are having a nice chat.
