SciFi and Fantasy Art: Cold Comfort

I am a huuuuge fan of drawing on this colored paper. This is an illustration for my snow-unicorn/Torn World stuff. Not sure how it will work into the plots; just started doodling and this is what happened. I was trying to stay away from my dependency on lines, per Ursula's art_challenge at livejournal. Derwent pencils and prismacolor white on MiTentes.

Nice work with the pencils. The scene is very eerie. I agree with the above poster, it reminds me of 2 people trying to console each other before the freeze to death. Don't know if that's what you meant, but it's a great pic either way.

I love this one, Ellen. It looks so highly textured. Whenever I see art I like, it inspires me to write a story. Thanks for sharing

I really gotta try the white pencils on colored paper thing -- I love the light effect you've made here. Good composition too.

This picture looks cool and it is a very unique and moody piece of artwork. I like how you made the moon that bright and standing out.
Coloured paper is a very beautiful medium because you can add shadows and even highlight parts of the drawing (which is much harder to do with a white paper)... this leads to greater depth in the picture. I should drive to a larger city and try to get a white pencil, too. =)

Awesome painting 2 I love the colour, or better, the lack of colour in it, which gives it its peculiar mood. I only regret it is not a bit larger, would like to see details better 2

Yay for Mi-teint paper! This is so sad I hope someone finds them and rescues them! I love the moon BTW.
