Art Is...As an artist I constantly find myself bombarded with the question: "how can you make this stuff up?" And for the most part I am bothered by this question, for as Julia Cameron once said "art is not about thinking something up. It is the opposite – getting something down." To create a body, to give it flesh and bone and breathe life into its shadowed eyes and form a personality through expression, this cannot be done from nothing.

This started off really cute, but after working on it for I'd say at least a good ten hours it's become a demon to stare at.

The colors are so vibrant and rich! O_O And the texture! <3 I actually had to double check the media to see that it was Traditional.

I loved the lineart, but I adore this color version. And the thought of a complete paper world is adorable.... though the MEGABEARD!Wizard frightens me a little... it's aliiiiive! D:

*RebekahByland Nov 4, 2009 Professional Digital Artist

Well, the colors have been boosted in photoshop a little...if you ever want to color the line art let me know and I could send you clean version.
