SciFi and Fantasy Art Swamp Dweller. Art trade. by Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova

The swamps are dangerous, beautiful, and mysterious places - and who knows what's lurking there in the night under the full moon?...

Here is my part of the art trad with the most talented Elfwood artist Jade Bengco, my take on her beautiful Swamp Dweller. I put a lot of efforts to make the merman and the background to look close to Jade's picture; I just changed his pose and expression a bit, as if he just had made a little movement, when he realized that he's watched:)
A close up.

Drawn with a mouse in Macromedia FreeHand11, 2006.

18 Jan 2007	Stormdemon	Loading... note to self: install swamp in garden and so atrract lots of pretty swamp dwelling creatures Ah, so many distractions from the tests I should learn for, but this distraction is so much more...interesting than most of the stuff I have to learn - in fact it is more interesting, more sexy, more attractive more yummy and generally so much more a pleasure to look at, well, I think you got the meaning. Wonderful picture again, Anya, and yes, I am still alive, although quite busy at the moment, which is why I didn't write earlier. Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova replies: "Hey Maxi, it's nice to hear from you! Glad that you like the Swamp Dweller! Hope that in spite of all the distractions you are doing all right with the tests. I am kinda fine, but art-wise I am having an artistic block but I am working on getting my self out of it. Haven't been drawing much lately, and finished just one new picture in the whole month (I just posted it in my LJ)... Okay, I wish you luck with your tests and a little bit of free time for enjoying the distractive pleasant things. Hope to hear from you someday soon!"

18 Jan 2007	Anne Wipf	Loading... No, Anya, no: if you begin to draw, as Jade does, such beautiful boys, I'll have some troubles for sleeping!... Great! And, as usually, your colours are really gorgeous. Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova replies: "Thank you so much! He-he, don't worry: I surely will continue with lovely boys, but in my usual style, not the pin-up type, Jade is unbeatable queen of!"
18 Jan 2007	Anoriel from Poland	Loading... P.S.S.I know Jade N.Bengco.She's also great artist I have never known before.Her stuffs are magnificent,I really love them,especially those hot sexy fairy-tales guys,especially mermans anyway.And I thought that I'm going to jump into Jade's stuff and start to have nice innocent fun or,as I want to say,eat them Sent Jade greetings from myself.I'm admiring her works. Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova replies: "I am also a big admirer of Jade's artistic talent, and her ability to create the hottest, handsomest characters ever - both males and females. Jade is one of my very favorite artists here in the Woods, and I am very glad that she agreed to do an art trade with me."

P.S.Even though of his lovely face,I was expecting that he would look almost like Sean Bean(he was almost hunting my dreams^^) Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova replies: "Hi Anoriel! Glad that you like the merman. He surely is handsome - all of Jade's characters are, and I tried to draw him so he won't lost any of his charm Though I don't think that he looks anything like Sean Bean )"
