Keeper of Cascadeby *samburley

Traditional Art / Paintings / Fantasy

Oils on masonite 36x24in.

Well, it's FINALLY done. Just shy of a year in the making, I unveiled this guy at IlluXCon ([link]) last week. A lot of people were surprised to find me oil painting, though it got a great response. Overall it was a huge learning experience and I made a lot of mis-steps that I hope to avoid in the future, but if anyone is interested in seeing the process of how it was made, there is step-by-step on my still quite new blog at ([link]).

Thank you all for your continued support!

Hey im not sure how this works, but im a musican writing my own music, and basically its epic rock/metal with fantasy lyrics, and something that i thought would be cool would to be pitch an idea of lyrics/ content and have something drawn to actually write the music to. let me know your ideas on this and thanks for the great art man, its totally beautiful.
