Artist's Comments

This is the second in a series of gothic style fairies called "Whitby Abbey Faeries" commissioned by UK sculpture manufacturers Nemesis Now.

The idea for this fairy was that her wings should look lace like. There are many heart designs incorporated in the image - from the designs on her gloves to the shape made between the two wings. I'll leave it to you to spot the rest ;)

Another artwork in this set can be seen here [link] They are currently being made into sculptures by Nemesis Now. The range will also be featured soon on other products also - I'll post detail when they are available.

A big thank you to Nemesis Now for giving me such a great subject to work on Thanks also to `Elandria who kindly posed as reference for the figure.

i have to admit you are one of the few digital artists that draw pictures that really touch me. they look so real, but at the same time mystic and unreachable... it is a great mix. you have the ability to give the digital pictures a heart. i have not seen this talent often.

and as you mentioned the heart-designs... they are hidden, but if you concentrate, you can find a lot. :heart: just great

Let us give thanks to The Builder, for He hath formed my hands with fingers. And behold, my fingers interlock like cogs on a gear. I am part of His unbeholdable machine, and therein lies my salvation.

very nice, I almost forgot the fairy theme and was impressed by the lace collared cloak (but unsure why it was curling like it was)...

Excellent.

Been to Whitby quite a few times. My paternal great grandmothers maiden name was Whitby...

My father and brothers ashes were scattered at sea close by. My paternal grandmother had a cottage at Robin Hoods Bays for many years. Now all gone, people and cottage.

Amazing, gorgeous, perfect, detail laden, dark, mystifying, gothic, brooding, sensuous...just a few of my favorite things! ;) You really know how to put on a show with your work and you get a standing ovation from me! :clap: The wings are so elegant and designed so cleverly and this whole dark color color scheme gracing the old graveyard is the perfect setting to stage this beauty! I'm glad I caught this one before going to bed...now I can have some really cool dreams! :D Superb work, as always!
