Summer 2003 - Felt-tipped pen - 21cm x 20cm

An illustration for a DSA-article. The Magician of clairvoyance works hard to reveal the secrets of a legendary fairy-pearl that might have been dragged 'to the dark side of magic' by a fallen treacherous colleague.

Nah... The only thing that made me wonder is that the story sounds familiar and the pic next to your bio looks familiar too... But I doubt we've really met.

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "Then how would my picture seem familiar?"

Someone I know came up with a similar story.... I've never heard of DSA before.

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "Ah. Now I got it."

Oh and as for you pic... I really don't know... It does look familiar, probably just my imagination.

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "*shrugs* Who knows? A déja-vu maybe. *g*"

@.@ So much detail! *Falls over in confusion and shame* I could never accomplish such detail greatness!

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "Thanks Heather! It's not hard but you need endless patience... ;-)"

Sorry, I forgot to read your quote on this picture....I figured out the question in my previous post.
*laughs*

Wetzel) replies: "The ability to read makes a clear advantage! ;-) (There's a German proverb going like this but I don't know if there's an English equivalent to it.) Hehe, funny, that the guy reminds you of your father ... Does he mumble from time to time, being followed by strange things happening around him? ;-)"

Such detail!! If only I could be that patient, but, sadly, I'm not.
It kinda reminds me of my dad in a strange way. I'm not sure how, but it just does.
What is he looking for in all those books anyway?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Actually he does mumble from time to time and when he does crazy things do happen!!!!
ACK! ME DADDY'S A WIZARD!!! (19

:-) Esther S. Brendel (Maiden name: Esther S. Wetzel) replies: "*lol* I guess you should avoid making him upset. ;-)"
