"Gainswellow Keep" by L.S. Engler

SF&F Picture 32 out of 93 by L.S. Engler

Item censored due to its Parental Rating level (#2 of 4), as set by the artist...


	The premptive sketch of a painting (oil) that i'm working on. This is Gainswellow Keep, as the title indicates, a creepy old castle in the middle of a 'haunted' forest...eventually, Ophelia Gainswellow (aka the Hawk) wanders apon it and fufills prophecy by residing there and re-establishing the kingdom of Gainswellow. I thought it was a pretty swanky picture.

14 May 2001	Crystal	Loading... Yes this is a very swanky picture! LOL Anyways, this is really good, and has a great discription! I'm looking forward to seeing this picture painted in oil paints.
18 May 2001	Dorota K. Liliowska	Loading... This place looks really mysterious and dangerous.. I love it!
26 May 2001	Jen R. DeFord	Loading... Yes, very good. The contrast in this one is EXCELLENT.
28 Nov 2001	Andrew J. Tucker	Loading... The place seems quite forboding, which, I assume, was the whole point. The one problem I have with it is that the trees seem a little too vague and undefined.
31 Oct 2002	Sarah Hudson	Loading... swanky indeed! I can't wait to see the painting of this, oils are so much fun! I like the moon in the background. Maybe add some gargoyles to the casltle to add to the effect more?I'm going to need a very sharp pencil for gargoyles.
19 Mar 2003	Samael	Loading... Now if only this were larger, so that you could define the details clearer! Yet it is still quite nice, and one can imagine the view inspired by the image...
26 May 2004	Alfred Jodokes Kwak	Loading... Like this picture, it would be nice to use it with a story
