Tag As FavoriteComment		This is my 2nd dryad and not in my PWM style. ^_^ I did this in one day, afternoon and evening. Sketched, inked, scanned and colored in Photoshop. I love dryads and I like the potential of many examples using the variety of trees existing in creation. ^_^ My first exposure to the concept was C S Lewis and his novels of 'Narnia'.

Hey Ruth, decided to come check out your gallery since you stopped by mine. I have to say that I like this piece, you have a great style and your character has alot of life. I have to say that I also appriciate your use of the term "creation" . I don't know if you hold the same beliefs or not, but I believe "creation" must have a "creator", anyways, that's beside the point, great work here, keep it up.

13 R.A. Parslow replies: "Thank you! What a great thoughtful comment. ^_^ I do also believe that creation must have a Creator. "

VERY nicely done! Great concept! Pose, colors and a really pretty face makes this pic into a real beauty! And I love those wood textures on her body too! They look so discreet, more like tattoos, which makes her even more human by appearance.

43 R.A. Parslow replies: "What a great comment! Thank you! ^_^ I want to continue with a line of dryads, I'd happily make them all some sort of cherry blossom variety, we'll see"

Slightly off topic but her hairstyle reminds me of one of the ones in Pricilla- Queen of the Desert. Seen the movie?
