Description
I spent a little time reading fairy stories... the kind that involve such things as mermaids and sea witches. Since I had them on the brain anyway, I decided to make my own sea witch. This one conjures up thunderstorms, hurricanes, and squalls by reciting ancient incantations from her Book of Storms. Stock used in this piece come from `lockstock for the sea witch, and sxc for the backgrounds and sky.Related content

Aw... thank you! I work hard on making sure all of these have some kind of story or identity behind them. I know my work isn't exactly that different from what a lot of other people are already doing out there, so I suppose my background stories are my way of trying to set myself apart.

Gosh, that is simply amazing and done so well. Great job!
Her right hand does appear a bit flat, although that might just be me.

I get a great deal of emotion from this, it is well infused in it's quality witha genuine feel of the scene and the emotions conveyed. I must say, it is a degree of quality I am not used to these days, I truly applaud and envy your skill.

Wow.... I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this comment. Sometimes I feel like my art doesn't stand out enough from the masses to really touch anybody, so I'm glad to hear that I'm wrong in that.

Thank you, dear! That was kind of a last minute adjustment. It just needed... well... something, and that seemed to do the trick.
