--->Here is a detail shot of the painting: [link] I'm back! Hehehe. xD So much for the haitus. XP First I want to say thankyou to  who spent a long time with me in front of the PC and watched me paint this piece and that he took time to discuss the concept idea with me before I even started it.  I've had a picture like this in my head for a little while. I wanted to create a scene which symbolizes the bond between the girl called Lumri and the Plant Spirit. Both are completely different yet they belong together. Defiance of the Shadow shows the earthy and untouched forest, which is yet protected by the nature of the plant spirit whilst the lethal hand of humankind forces the forests to give way. I had to create a final design for Lumri, which took me a while because I couldn't make up a good face for her. In the end, I thought that my youngest sister has the perfect look which fits to the character of Lumri. The young and childlike shape of the face yet the concentrated eyes were very important aspects which made me choose my sister as a reference for Lumri. Also, I think it's a good choice since I almost see myself when I was a little child and had dreams like those. :3 This was also a piece I used to experiment a lot with. For example I adujsted every single brush myself which has been used for this picture and I think I will use them more often.  I hope you like it! :3 Photoshop, Wacom 25 hours I offer prints of this picture. Note me if you're interested. :] The Plant Spirit is © 2008 Claudya Schmidt aka AlectorFencer.

I'm an expert on very few things. The above is probably not one of them.

This has to be the most tunning piece I've seen from you. It has everything: beautiful and powerful colouring, amazing concept and idea. It speaks to humans by the language of the nature.
The pipes are looking so dangerous in the back and the woods are like trying to keep all the bad things away. This is very powerful picture and it has a point we humans should have noticed before it was too late to correct most of our mistakes towards the nature...
A-m-a-z-i-n-g job!

I love how this looks like a film poster - as I was scrolling down I expected to see a film title in big white letters at the bottom.
There's so much to say about this piece but I haven't got the ability to do it justice. I'll try again once I've got some breakfast in me.
