Description And the passing of time took its toll on the once regal construction ...

A magical portal concept commissioned by Natalya Faden from Kolyana for the "Shattered Blade" project. It is here represented at two very different times in the history of this world.

Thank you for the nice comment.
I checked your gallery and liked it very much. But I definitely have a soft spot for your Veil Tail fish. Simple and perfect.

Moi aussi je t'avouerais, je suis content que cette illustration te parle. Evidemment on ne peut pas s'empΓͺcher de penser Γ  Angkor je pense. J'aimerais vraiment voir cet endroit un jour.

Many thanks for the nice words. I know that the client likes to pop up and read people's comments on the commissioned pieces, so comments are important both for me and for the company I worked for. And even if they raise issues or concerns: it helps us aim better the next time.

I hope you will like the future pieces I add.
Best wishes,

You are very welcome. I am finally going through the nearly 100 deviations I was neglecting during the semester. I loved that piece when you showed it in Epi!
Everything is well, wedding planning going on. Leaving to Argentina in about 12 days and still don't know how I'll get everything done!! But everything will be done

So, how is everything going with the wedding ? Fine I hope.

Everything seems to be on its right track. There will be a lot of last minute things since it is impossible for me to work them out from here. But everything should be fine

Wow, this is very cool! Reminds me of the Maya cities in Yucatan, especially Coba. Very well executed too, nice shading!

Thanks a lot.
It is funny that you should say so, because just yesterday I was attending an exhibit in Paris on Teotihuacan. It was full of old and undecipherable carved stone, in the unmistakeable pre-columbian graphic style. It was really kind of other-worldly. I am glad if my little illustration conveys the same kind of feelings.

Thanks for dropping by,
Best,

Pierre

I love that! For obvious reasons the effect of the passing of time on once-great and crowded places fascinated me

Thank you Joumana. I appreciate it all the more as you are among the people in the business who humble me (yes, no kidding !).
I can easily imagine where your soft spot for old stones comes from.

I hope you are well,
Best wishes,

Pierre
