    hello there and welcome, fellow traveller:) i'm glad you found your way to my fantasy gallery! i've joined elfwood in the year 2001, that was around the time i started to concentrate more into fantasy art. i do loads of other art things, too, but that doens't belong in here.

    i get my inspirations mostly from music (such as irish folk, gothic and medieval, ayreon, classical and goa / psychedelic trance, to name a few), from some dreams i had and from fairy tales and all the movies that concern them (you can also take a look to my fanquarter gallery!). my mind is often very far away dreaming around somewhere in some far away lands, so this is my way of telling its 'stories'.

    everything i draw is done out from my imagination - i never use some models or model pictures or such, and that is probably also a mistake - since i just can't improve only drawing that way. i also have very little patience with working out details, so with most of my pictures i just had the urge to put down my feelings and as long as i feel they come across the paper to the viever i am happy with my work.

    i love trying out all sorts of medias for my art and also love combining them. photography has been taking a big part of it too lately since i have the possibility to lend a digital camera from my father every once in a while. for big photo shootings it's just the best thing (i never thought that i'd ever say this, since i'm such a phreak of my "regular" minolta camera:)!). so i'm thinking about getting myself a digicam too to be able to work more with it since i have loads of ideas in my mind i want to realize. another challenge would also be to figure out how to work with some photo programs since i know that way i could realize much more ideas i've got stuck in here. but i'll need to find a tutor, first;-).

    please feel free to comment on any of my work - indeed, i'd love you to:)!!! constructive critisism is very important to me as i can learn a lot from it, so, feel free to tell me whatever runs around your mind when watching my stuff, or anything else you'd like to share:)! (please also think about my commentless ones - these poor fellows, some of them are my favourites and have no single comment:(...) i wish you lots of fun wandering around. love, peace and happiness shall come your way;-)

    = last update: gee, do i have loads of spelling mistakes in my english - how embarassing... *blush*... - i have finally got a photoshop programm... gee i love it:)!!! many pieces are due for soon, either regular paintings or such worked on with photoshop =

    Read your bio. I also usually draw only from my imagination! It’s cool to know I’m not the only one! xD
    If I need models for poses, I usually just use a mirror, and for other stuff, instead of drawing from sight, I learn how to draw things and just apply that knowledge when drawing whatever I’ve imagined.

    I’d say you could use some improving in your technique (we all do), but I love the way you can feel stories behind your pictures. Keep it up! ^_^

    (oh and also, the people who reply to comments are the best! I’m surprised to see how many don’t. Go you!)
