Description EDIT: "Request Critiques" option turned on. ^^
EDIT²: I've made some changes on the unicorn's horn on the right. Thank to VGiselleH for the critique and her advice !

Et encore de la forêt et des licornes !
Je suis un peu obsedée, on dirait. Mais cette fois dans des teintes un peu plus chaudes, inspirée d'une des peintures de Carl Frederic Aagaard.
J'adore ce peintre.

Forest and unicorns again !
I'm a freak, I know. But this time, it's in more warm colours, inspired by one of Carl Frederic Aagaard's paintings.
I love his work.

I'm really glad that you take the time to do this critique and thank you for that!
I agree with the inconfortable feeling you have with the horn, now you point it out to me. I will fix it as soon as possible.
And you noticed right about the foal, he's too young to have horn yet. He's still suckling so, for the sake of his mother's belly, it will grow later. (But I forgot to remove this mistake on the sketch before scanning it.)

Thank you very much for your critique again !

You're welcome, I still keep staring at this image, it's so pretty ^_^ And you're very right, the foal would cut open his mother's belly every time he tried to drink if he had a horn already, ouch!

You did! I can't see what you did exactly, but the horn is suddeny sturdy now so you must have done something, lol, that is amazing!

Je vais a faire en anglais pour qu'un peu tout le monde puisse comprendre hein ^^"

First of all, I'm totally in love with the magical atmosphere of this picture. Unicornes, deers, hight trees, the light which comes on the characters... They both give a peaceful and relaxful effects.

Your style now... Looks a bit like a realistic artwork, but also looks like those beautiful pictures we can find in books about legends and mythologies. And from what I've seen, old legends are your main source of inspiration. That's really great.
The soft shading and hightlight are nice done, the characters are perfectly fitting with the background. I really wish I could come into the picture and stay with those animals.

I don't see any bad point in this art. You manage to give life to "classical poses", all those babies touch me a lot. Really great piece.

PS: Legends and myths, they need people like you to continue to exist. We must not forget them e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)" />

This is very beautiful. Just as long as it is ALL handpainted by you in the computer then it is allowed in the club but absolutely no photomanipulation f any kind. And that includes those brushes that insert entire images like planets or flowers or whatever. If you did not paint it then it is not allowed.

Love these trees.

ValkAngie In reply to Fainting-Star [2010-05-02 00:33:01 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much!
I can promise you that is all handpainted. I have some "work in progress", if you want to be sure.

Thank you again, trees was one of the most difficult part.

This painting is gorgeous! I'll start by saying that the unicorn's anatomy is very well done as well as the colors ,the background feels real and it contrasts nicely with the characters. I love the way you draw, keep it up! j'adore tout la composition :3

Mmmh, alors d'accord : Une fois qu'il a fini Mufasa, promis, il va s'occuper de dépecer le "grand bleu" de "Monster et Cie" !! ... Sympa la carpette "Rivendell" de la page 14 du catalogue Gondora !
