In winter Auberon sleeps most of the time. He dreams. Like the whole nature. From time to time he wakes and he's always very dangerous, when he wakes from his winter dream. Knows no mercy, no compassion... Coloured pencils, pencil and black ink. Plus some small touching up in computer

Wow, very cool. I love the dark, cold feeling of this picture.

:-) Helena Maddiel Stepanova replies: "Thank you."

...but while he sleeps, his cloak and his dreams protect the seeds and the sleeping animals that will come back to life in the spring...
Beautiful picture and so like winter! And, if I may add, your Auberon is very seducing, in this androgynous way...

Mmmm... Delicious. I love the way his robes end as though they're petals, maybe nature made an exception and allowed flowers out of season for such unnatrual beauty?

:-) Helena Maddiel Stepanova replies: "They're frost flowers...;-) Thank you very much for the comment."

This is sickeningly amazing (in a god way I assure you!) I love the cold feel with the blue and then the black for the backround. It feels bleak and sad. Not to mention those folds are crazy awesome. There are too many things to say about it really! I just love the way you did this. Good work! 1

Ooooooh ! I love the style and the colors, the creases of the dress, the hair... and the blue, the blue, the blue...

:-) Helena Maddiel Stepanova replies: "Thanks..."

Do I detect water colours?

:-) Helena Maddiel Stepanova replies: "Just coloured pencils...1 (If I remember correctly...)"
