Lady of Light by Balaa

Lady of Light (Thought I haaad uploaded this but apparantly I have not :). Done bout 6 months ago now I think? ) 10 points if you recognize who I modelled her after. That's right Galadriel from LOTR. There was one photo in particular of Galadriel that always stuck in my mind, and so I wanted to pay Galadriel Homage in animal form. I am rather proud of the piece, shortcomings and all. It is one I got rather attached to. Celtic knotwork..eh could use a lot of work...I was actually quite lazy with it and just freehanded it instead of lanning ahead. Details: tools: mechanical pencil, q-tip on bristol Size: 11x14 Prints: yes 8x10 prints 8$ US plus shipping, pm if interested :) Original: given away

Medium: pencil on bristol

In the Cave of Pearls by Balaa

An otter girl, a quick sketch on 9x12 bristol for the Anthrocon 2006 art show. I actually had fun doing this one, it wasn't meant to be perfect or flawless but just fun and a little break from building stress..and it certainly achieved that. Yes I am putting a lot of my pencil work in my scraps..not because I view them as scraps but because sometimes the work I secretly love I like to hide away where less scrutinizing eyes are likely to see. I am not perfect and sometimes all the criticism I get on some pieces actually gets me quite down..seems silly but sometimes I still feel quite small in the big ocean of deviant.. Plus I actually value the comments and faves I receive on my scraps more than on my deviations..its simple..you actually took the time to look at all the art I do..and I am humbled and honored by that. Thank you to you all! tools: mechanical pencil on bristol
