This was an illustration to a story my boyfriend wrote. The Foar are a creature similar to swans, but change into beautiful women when they touch the earth. There were 6 of them, but this is the green one...having touched down in a world of black and white, everything in her wake taking on the brilliance of her color. The original to this is huge, and there's a bigger version at http://skywise.critter.net/images/greenfoarhires.jpg :}

Its a really lovely piece and I love the use of colours, you have a brill talent, but it lacks drama.

Wonderful picture!!!! Though I can't agree with Lydia about the colours, I'm sorry. For me is a swan a symbol of happiness, so I find the drawing a little sarcastic 10
But very very realistic \o/

Wow! It looks so real! I like the colours a lot in this.

I will never understand why people think that every picture needs to have "drama" in it. Personally, I find quiet pictures like this one lovely, and subtle, and more worthy of contemplation than many of the more "dramatic" pieces you see thrown about the woods like fall leaves.

This is just beautiful. You have a read talent for drawing realistic feathers. I envy that.

I find this beautiful, and not only because green is my favourite color 2
But I think it looks more like a white swan lit by a green light, than an actually green swan. It might be the white highlights.

Still, it's very beautiful, realistic and serene.

really nice, this is beautiful to me because the swans back looks a bit pearlized, and it’s like you can see the clouds in the sky on her back.
