Semiyar, the silver-haired minstrel, storyteller, wanderer with the unmistakable purple feather and eyes to match, and Svenana, his silver lute who trills unceasingly to him and inspires the music he is most famous for.  Finally got the chance to finish a proper portrait of him and his ridiculous outfit, with all the random trinkets he manages to collect from his journeys. It's extremely colorful, as he likes to stand out in a crowd, but I escaped the worst of it by painting in monotone instead. XD The winged heart locket is a gift for his new sweetheart, Diana, and he's also wearing a moon charm of hers.

You can learn more about Semiyar and "The Wars of Avenan" storyline on my website: http://meadowhaven.net/

I like the way he’s shaded, very nice. Great job on the detail and keeping the observer’s eye in the picture -excellent composition. Overall a very gentle feel to it along with the curiousity that questions where he got all his trinkets.
