Art Is All About Passion . . .
For me, creating art is all about passion. It's a way for me to breathe life into the visions in my head, without using words, despite how fond I am of the written word. I can be very verbose at times, and have been known to ramble on. If you find your way here, feel free to browse and say hello. But please treat this little space of mine as you would your own. I would be greatly appreciative of that courtesy.
If art is your passion as well, I would love to see your little place on the web. I think, that in a way, we all inspire each other, as well as draw inspiration from the things we can see, and the things we perceive. Sometimes inspiration can come from an uttered phrase, or a single word spoken at the right moment. From a song or music, the forest, mountains, wild places and things. These are some of the things that inspire me.
"VALIANT"
Inspiration Drives Us
One of my favorite subjects is and ALWAYS has been warriors. Granted, I do make art about other subjects, but the fantasy warrior remains one of my most favorite genres.
With this particular image part of my inspiration was “Game of Thrones” and part of it was how lonely and hard such a posting would be. This courageous woman is in the middle of this remote wilderness with only the ruins, her sword and her armor for protection. There is no way of knowing for certain what dangers lurk in that vast mountain region.
I imagined her on one knee, summoning her inner strength to see her duty through till her replacement comes. Perhaps she is praying to her gods or maybe reflecting on the solitary nature of her watch. She’s no stranger to the cold or this lonely place, made clear by her quiet courage in the face of such a harsh and unforgiving environment.
