Artist's Comments

March 25th, 2006 - watercolor and acrylic - 18x25 cm

Another drow in my pictures.. oh well, there aren't many on DA at the moment, but there are many in my art, and in my heart too.
It seems I have quite an obsession.
...that is, if elves are the "perfect creatures", what may be more intriguing than perfection shaded with evil? *sneers*
There is more than this about drow in my mind, but I won't bore you with this.
I only say this concept was in my mind for a good deal of time. Don't know why a drow fisher, I have no clues.

Original and prints (8x11") are available for sale. Please send me an email if you're interested.

Ahh I couldn't agree more! Amazing drawing, breathtaking. I would actually really like to know more about how you thought of this drawing and its meaning...if you care to share :D

Ahem, I'm not sure where it came from!
I've sort of an obsession with drow, I draw and paint this race a lot (I realize it's very strange that this is the only drow picture on DA at the moment, but I'll add more soon), and at the moment I'm involved in 3 D&D campaigns, and 2 are based on drow.
This picture tells me of calm and serenity, that's something quite strange for a drow... it's almost still, even if the scene should be in motion. I like the fact that it seems made of almost flat shapes, and that the waves are somehow abstract. I guess this helps to suggest there is a symbolism at work... but I'm the first one who has to *read* my artworks, and *search* for their meaning... because they don't tell me (often)! Argh! :-)

(I'm sorry I couldn't be more helpful!)

It makes sense to me so it was helpful :) Do you do commissions? We could use some good art in our magazine, especially now that we're trying to make it more professional and hold contests with cash prizes.

Let me know if you do commissions, I might want to buy some ;)

Beautiful! Love the way you painted the ocean. It looks very vivid.

Looks very beautiful! I showed it to my brother and he likes it too. I like the mood and the elf has hair, that makes me jealous! ^^
The posture really fits that of a drow.

(I do love long hair, especially on boys!)
