Description Another illustration piece I made for my portfolio.
This one only took about an hour and a half... I feel like I'm starting to get back in the swing of things...!

This one's purely conceptual. I have no idea where this came from. There's no story behind it, and for some reason there's a blue mouse. Yay for adventure!

After seeing this it makes me want to make an RPG game out of it. What do you think?

um...for a homework assignment we had to bring in a picture and try to describe it in words, and I used this pic. I hope you don't mind. Also, would it be alright for me to post what I wrote on DA and use this pic as a preview image?

I adore this. Massively, massively adore this. Not only does it look like a picture from a children's book, but it looks like concept art for a video game--like an RPG/adventure common in the late 80's/early 90's.

The colors are very pastel-like and eye candy and the setting is mystical. Awesome job.

Very cool! I love the colors!
This reminds me of those pics you see in video game instruction booklets.

Thank ya!
haha, funnily enough, this was partly inspired by an illustration from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past instruction booklet... of Link standing on a rocky cliff side with his back to the viewer, looking outward to a desert castle in the distance...
