Description Elves are healers of magical creatures, sure. Well, the cute or pretty ones anyway. If a big-eyed baby manticore gets orphaned, there are elves there before the first tear hits the ground. If a hippogriff gets a hangnail, elves will wait on it hand and foot until it's too fat to fly. And if a unicorn gets a stone in its hoof--dear lord, call out the national guard, there'll be elves peeling grapes and fetching pillows at all hours, the finest elven podiatrists will be called in, it's a crisis.*

But if a troll hurts itself? Yep, there's only one elf you call in then, our patient and long-suffering friend, Sings-to-Trees.
---

I can't leave that elf alone, man. And the sad troll...I gotta paint more sad trolls... *grin* Ah--Painter 7, intuos tablet, prints available, for $10 and $20, visit [link] if interested!


*At least one exceedingly clever warlord was known to exploit this tendency by turning a half-dozen unicorns with head-colds loose immediately before a battle, causing a total defection by the enemy as they all rushed to offer laps and hold hankies.

I'm soooo fond of this comment of yours ! It's jsut... too cute ! I wished I had half as much imagination as you. Is there, perhaps, a story behind that little Sing-to-trees buddy ?

What a charming concept! I really like this. The poor troll looks so upset, and the elf so patient.
The technique used to render the image is exceptional, as well! Excellent job!

THis has made me reaaallly happy, and definitley made my day. And I love the comments on elves, and its true. Sings to trees make me happy inside, and so does the troll. Trolls have feelings too, and I love the expression on the trolls face. -faved!-

The description basically makes this the most adorable painting ever. A look-over, a thought, a read, then a second look makes this superb.:3 Their expressions go TERRIBLY well with whom they are. I'm glad you're keeping Trees around!<3

AniaMohrbacher [2005-09-28 03:48:15 +0000 UTC]

So I generally try to fave artwork of the less known artists, but I just love this image I think both because of the pained expression of the troll, and because I think the idea is just priceless. Not to mention that I'm very happy that you can't leave that elf elone, because i like him a bunch! Your work and your imagination are always so inspiring...

Have you ever published a book of some sort? (asides of the webcomic) If there is an artbook (or any book illustrated by you for that matter) I'd definately love to buy a copy.
