Tag As FavoriteComment		I couldn't think of a better title. This was inspired by medieval tapestries, so I strove for a natural type of unicorn, something that could feasibly exist combined with a more antiquated coloring style.

This definitely looks straight out of a medieval tapestry. The excessively dark shadows and background really help on that level, and the stylization of the pose. Interesting take on a unicorn. Almost looks like a deer (but for the tail, obviously). Very nice.

It looks like somebody's pet with that collar. Not that that's a bad thing, there could be some tame unicorns. It does look like it could really exist. Nice job.

This is really different! It’s like the creature is hiding in the shadows, barely seen...much different from the usual eye-drippingly gorgeous flowy-mane candyfluff of unicorns and related subjects. Eye candy has it’s place, but I do appreciate the difference in style here. Maybe those medieval artists saw something--there were more forests, long ago.
And in the rest of your art, your use of light color captures something most digital artists (ironically) miss: subtle glow and sparkle---glimmer. Do you work in physical media also?
Bravo in that respect!

It doesn;t need a mane its a new creation, the Unicorn beborn its a Unifawn Deercorn can you Peeps see! Bret, has got immense artisitical depth, vision, spiced with wonderful flights of fantasy... The magic shes weaves is simply enchanting without a doubt. Therefore, her masterworks speak for themselves without any vain reproaches from the lesser endowed... The truly gifted are often martyred by the jealous and weak minded.

This is beautiful...I like it when artists draw unicorns that don’t exactly look like a horse...I love horses, but I think this style is both more interesting and probably more realistic, if there were such creatures. 2
