11 Apr 2010	Green Phoenix	Loading... Impressive job you did on the linework, colourinng and composition in this one. This could work very well as a book illustration.
27 May 2010	The Mystery Elfwood Critic	Loading... Did you have "The Raven," by Edgar Allan Poe in mind while creating this piece? "Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor. `Wretch,’ I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore! Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!’ Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.’" -"The Raven," by Edgar Allan Poe (1845)
