Description A piece I've been meaning to repaint for almost a year now, and finally pushed myself into it. It suits the frigid, gloomy weather we've been having lately, heh. Faeren and Morgan, in a scene that may or may not happen in the books. A collab effort between myself and the talented ~SB-Gothic (she painted the lovely awesome snowy trees in the background!) ^___^ A vast improvement over the original painting done in 2003... *shudders*

You can learn more about Faeren, Morgan and "The Wars of Avenan" storyline here: [link]

I would ask if you were to allow me to use this piece for a literature piece

AdeleLorienne In reply to LokiTheSaint [2011-12-02 22:35:06 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for asking, but since this is a specific scene with characters from my own storyline, I would ask you not to use it for anything else.

Wow, this piece is absolutely incredible. It's so powerful in so many ways! The pain and sadness just seems to radiate off of the man, and the person in the back! Ah This is wonderful. SOOOOOOOO wonderful. <3 [link]

The first time I saw this picture a few mounth ago I was impressed so much, that I posted your work in my diary along with one song I found another day... I just have a simple hobby to pick up a music for a beatiful pictures to express my feelings, but that time the combination I have found touched not only me, but a few other people too... And then I thought that may be you'll like it too, so I decided to send you this song. I don't actually know if you'll like it (you're author after all, you might have another vision for your work), but I thought I should try. At first sight it doesn't even look suit the picture, but the more I listen the more I can feel that story, which is shimmering with a lot of different emotions.
I'm sorry if you won't like it, I just wanted to share my impressions with you. The song is here: [link]
Thank you very much for this work of art!

Incredibly powerful picture you have here. Very inspiring. I live around a lot of snow and never really thought of the drastic sight blood on snow would make. Nicely done.

RestillHabb [2009-06-25 04:07:31 +0000 UTC]

So with the original vs. this updated version, did you paint the original and then add to it to create the final piece? Or are they two separate paintings based on one another? This is, by the way, beautiful.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AdeleLorienne In reply to RestillHabb [2009-06-25 09:21:07 +0000 UTC]

They are two separate paintings based on the same pencil sketch. The first painting was done years ago, back when I was just learning to paint, and the new version was done more recently.

In form they look almost identical, but in style, very different. Thank you

Amazing all the way around <3 those snowy trees do indeed look fabulous. I love your character's design and how much improvement there is from the 2003 version as well. ^^

leighly [2009-04-19 18:10:39 +0000 UTC]

This is fantastic!

It's worth mentioning, though, that I couldn't tell what that was to his right (the other guy) until I looked at the original version. :\ And I still can't make out anything above that guy's waist...

Still, that's a small complaint compared to how well-done the rest of the painting is. Just a small critique, hope you don't mind!

Indeed, a much better version, but of course! I love the snow effect, and the colours seem a lot more life-like too. Mind you the 2003 one is still amazing to try and imagine and recreate artistically for me! Looking at these helps me understand better how to look at my work and improve on it.

TNHawke [2008-12-26 04:38:55 +0000 UTC]

The original is cool too, but I'm definitely partial to the more realistic images you've been bringing forth lately.
Keep up the amazing work!

(snow is SO hard and it looks just like what was falling on me here in Idaho Monday night!)
