great work!
I pictured Achren a bit more bony though...I guess cause shes and enchantress and somehow when I think of enchantress I automatically think of witch...even though there two different things and when I think of witch I...well...think of bony *laughs*

It's beautiful. I just finished reading the books so I had to find out more about these absolutely delightful characters. You have captured them in such a way that they seem ready to begin moving and that they are alive. I am stunned. It is absolutely wonderful.

Wow I do love this. It's beautiful. You have some great talent there. ^_~
It also reminds me of Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series. The girl dressed in white looks like a novice being scolded by an Aes Sedai for channeling too much of the One Power and getting ahead of herself. Looks like an Aes Sedai of the Black Ajah! ooo...
Yes I know it has nothing to do with the Wheel of Time, but if you haven't read it you should. You'd like it. ^_^
Thanks for the splendiferous art.

It would be nice if her teeth weren't so rabbit-like.
Great pic, though

This has to be one of my favorite paintings ever. The expressions on their faces are priceless, along with the superb lighting and colors!

Wow....this pic is one of my top favorites. Achren looks so scary. I'd hate to be Eilonwy right there. Very very good pic!!
