My absolute favourite writer is Patricia A. McKillip. Everything she writes is a treasure for a lover of words. She spins an exquisite web of jewel-like words, dense with imagery, yet very simple and subtle in her way. Her very existence, when I get very discouraged, comforts me that there is such a beautiful mind out there who is utterly above the mundane. Anyway I'm so happy that Kinuko Craft is her illustrator, because what Craft does through painting is very similar in a way what McKillip does through writing. So I am utterly unable of doing better but what the heck=)
This is Rois Melior (bottom right) from the book Winter Rose , a fey and wild country girl together with her beautiful (and normal) sister Laurel who become dangerously attracted to the mysterious Corbet who appears out of nowhere to reclaim his father's estate. Rois falls in love with him, even though she is the only one who knows that he is not entirely human...
*Am planning to colour this picture, and paint Corbet.....mmmm*

This is beautiful. Their features are so delicate and soft. I love the contrast (I'm so biased to black and white anything and your piece is an example as to WHY)
Love it!

Hey this is a cool picture! I like how they look real and a lot of people's pictures look really stylized. And they're drawn off the computer 12
