Daniel D. Copeland (the Naked Celt)

I draw with pencils. Nice cheap pencils, ’cause of the unemployment thing. Mostly, I draw fantasy subjects, but I’m also very fond of folklore and myth. My favourite fantasy authors are Terry Pratchett, J. K. Rowling, and J. R. R. Tolkien. My favourite artist on Elfwood is Ursula Vernon.

My dislikes? Do not mention Terry Goodkind in my presence. Or animé, I hate animé. There’s probably such a thing as good animé, but I’m afraid, living in New Zealand, I mainly associate it with such crimes against humanity as Pokémon and Dragonball Z. </rant>

I’m a member of the Zompist BBoard, which is a set of forums, run by Mark Rosenfelder, for people who make up fantasy worlds, and, especially, the associated languages. Highly recommended if you’re into that sort of thing, which I imagine quite a lot of people on Elfwood will be.

Feel free to leave what comments you like on my work. Hey, if you say something stupid it’s not me that’s gonna look bad. All the same, I do have a couple of courtesy requests:

• Please don’t try and defend bad drawing on my part by saying “This is fantasy, guys, it can look like whatever the artist wants”, or any equivalent. I share Ursula Vernon’s opinion on such sentiments, to wit: magic should be an inspiration, not an excuse. There are no such things as centaurs or dragons, but it’s my job to make you think there could be. If it doesn’t look real, that’s something I need to work on.
• I’m an ex-Christian sceptic, and this may show up in my work. I’m also a practising nudist, and this will definitely show up in my work. I realize there will be many people who disagree with both those positions, and I have big pages on my website defending them. Please don’t use the comments space to debate the issue unless you’ve read those pages and come up with an argument which isn’t mentioned there, and is relevant to the artwork in question. Otherwise it’ll just get silly.

Yet again you are truely a man of art.I ask you to do more pictures of ladies and more mythical creatures to get a feal for some of your work! Your taste in books is the exactly the same as mine I love Harry Potter by J.K Rowlings shes awesome! 17 Feb 2006 Knights Loading... Those people do not know what art is and your art is truly unique and we my associate and I were thinking about hiring you. You are a one of a kind artist and I think your work has meaning in it even if others do not understand it and it scares them. You are truly a man of art! I understand their words may have been hurtful but sticks and stones may break my bones and words can never hurt me as a wise woman said to me once. 20 Feb 2006 Knights <knight.help@hot...com> Loading... Hi it's us again were are still waiting for your email we are honestly interested in your art. You probably think this is a big hoax but we will truly pay you for your art work. But money talks bull walks like my mom has said many times in my life. I'm melody and I work for many different places anonymously No one other than my bosses really know me by name or even know who I am. I personally want you to come work for my associate. Again I truly believe you are a man of art every time I come here I look you up to see if you added any new pics. Hopefully you do add new soon. 6 Jul 2006 Rochelle Green Loading... Hello, fellow kiwi! Both your bio and the comments on your main page were sources of much amusement, thank you Now what's this art-stuff you are showcasing here... 16 Aug 2006 Sabrinames Loading...

Your a professional?!?! lolol 16 Oct 2010 Anon. Loading... naw seriously how can a nudist be so bad at anatomy?! 16 Aug 2011 Anon. Loading... There’s something a tad suspect don’t you think about a 40-something year old man who likes to post nude pictures of himself on a website dominated by underage girls, don’t you think? Oh, but the body is natural and we’re the ones with the problem... It’s a sign of his healthy body image that he wants to show his dick to kids. Seriously, talked to this guy on other sites--he always uses the same handle and he’s a paedophile Page: [1] 2 3 4
