“He was walking into Faerie, in search of a fallen star, with no idea how he would find the star, nor how to keep himself safe and whole as he tried. He looked back and fancied that he could see the lights of Wall behind him, wavering and glimmering as if in a heat-haze, but still inviting.” ― Neil Gaiman, Stardust

Fauna's Song

Close up

The fauna is playing a unique song with her harp in the end of the summer, a song which calls the autumn and its beautiful creatures. All the colors in nature change at once, and the gust of wind becomes different. Who said that autumn isn't beautiful?

I created this painting for a workshop of IT'S ART Cg site. The title of the workshop is 'Fantastic Emotions' coming on 24th March.

"Tinuviel! Tinuviel! He called her by her elvish name; And there she halted listening. One moment stood she, and a spell His voice laid on her: Beren came, And doom fell on Tinuviel That in his arms lay glistening." J. R. R. Tolkien

'Ninemia' - The sequel and final part of 'Antara'

Hello there,

Finally the second book is available, 'Ninemia' is the second and final part of 'Antara'. 'Ninemia' is shorter and darker than 'Antara' with plenty of mystery and adventure and it includes 15 illustrations. Here is the synopsis :

The ‘Antara’ had disappeared... or at least that’s how it seemed, until one night a terrible nightmare will overshadow Asteria’s dreams forever. Some lust for revenge, others hide vital secrets, demonic souls want to corrupt the Aster Island and the merfolk. Where the present unites with the past, where dreams pause to exist, the fight for survival begins. Is love strong enough to face the enemies? The infinite blue of the sea, a sweet song and an angelic soul will be their only hopes to keep their beloved ones alive. After the illustrated novel ‘Antara’, the second and final part of the story follows. A sequel which is going to move you and travel you to heavenly worlds.

You can buy 'Ninemia'
