All the purple is just awesome. For someone who never uses purple for anything, I am surprisingly drawn to the colour both in my art and the art of others. Working backwards through your works, I can see the progression of your talent. Which looks like it must have been massive to begin with! Anything horse-like in body is one of my huge challenges in art, as is the use of paint, so painting something horse-like it body is a major show of talent so far as I'm concerned!

This is such a stunning piece of work. Why on earth is it in "scraps"?
I really love your style. I'm wondering if you would do an illustration for one of my stories... I don't know how you'd prefer it - an art trade or a commission? How much would you charge?
Well, thanks for your time

I'm pretty new to DeviantART but I think you'll have to remove it and resubmit it into the proper section. But I'm not sure.
The story can be found here: [link] but you don't have to trawl through all of it. Here are the sections that describe it:
--------------
[On first entering the land]
It was an ugly land, hard and black, yet it held some great degree of mystification and charm. Vast plateaus of rock drew into the distance, finally met by a string of mountains very far away. I felt through my feet a deep heat in the cold stone.
[A few days later]
We were once roused from our reverie by the shouting of Shal. She had spied what looked like a town ahead of us, set into the mountains. In a few days, we came upon the buildings. We knew there werenβt people; the hordes had been through almost the entire land, and groups of assassins had come afterwards to kill those left behind. But we hoped to find food, and rest a few days.
Disused fields of crops framed the edges of the town, grasses taking over the tilled soil. There was a church still standing at the back of the buildings. Part of it was carved into the mountainside, which sat behind it like one huge rock, cushioning the town.
[They climb onto the roof]
Rubbled walls edged the roof. A large bell lay rusted on one side. Behind us, the floor merged into the mountainside, so that it was actually possible from where we were to climb onto the mountain and over it.
We peered into the distance, the black land stretching for miles in front of us, glimmering slightly with the light of dawn.
--------------
You don't have to draw every detail... it'll be nice to have the flat land, a string of mountains, and maybe a tiny village by the foot of the mountains. But you can pretty much chose whatever part you like to portray
Please give me an idea about pricing though, before you begin. I'd hate to waste your time if I end up not being able to afford it.
