No exams until september means more time for painting.
The Dreamer arrives in Alagadda on the day of the Red Lord's Carnival.
(That is why the sky is red and not its usual color)
The Dreamer in Alagadda.
This sketch is still far from finished but i love it and I can't wait to paint it.
I hate having to sketch with so much detail but 3 point perspective is a b***h.
The Mad Dreamer, chief Archivist of the Library of Alagadda, Master of the Alchemic Arts. Sworn to the White Lord, Albedo of Alagadda.
The Dreamers that freely roam the Darkling Plain and the people of Celephais and Serannian, who live under King Kuranes call him by many other names :The Lost One, the fool, the forsaken . But more often he is known as the Prisoner, because in his folly he bartered for his life and the scraps of his sanity with his freedom.
He was a Dreamer on a leash, a political advantage to the Faction of the White Lord . He was a cherished tool for his master, feared and respected, until he vanished from the City, leaving behind his citizen's mask and rumors of betrayal.
For Chandra however he was mentor, friend and father all in one, and she would not forsake him.
Concept sketch/ WIP for the Mad Dreamer.
@amyma-ymamy feel free to add.
It has been a year an a half since I began painting digitally. Before I only worked with traditional media, mainly oil and watercolor, but between med school and moving to another city for studying, traditional painting became a little impractical. The first picture is my first finished digital painting (done on IbisPaint, on a stylus-less samsung tablet) and the second one is one of the paintings I am more proud of ( on infinite painter, on a samsung tablet with s-pen).
I do miss painting with traditional media but shifting to digital allowed me to grow a lot and keep painting in the scraps of time, which is GREAT. I also improved a lot beacuse I felt freer to experiment without the fear of ruining a piece forerver ( God bless the undo button, my saint and patron).
In case you are wondering, the first picture represents Sunspear, the seat of house Martell. I kinda love the concept and as soon as I have the time I wil probably paint in again. The second one, of course, is Carcosa from "The King in Yellow", reimagined for my "Tales of the Dreamer" project.

The Dreamer returns to Alagadda looking for a way to escape her fate.
Just some pretty lineart for a bigger painting, always for "Tales of the Dreamer".
Right now med school is killing me (I have two exams in as many days, just let me die), but, as always when I am stressed and sleep deprived, I am also quite inspired ( meaning: I have a LOT of weird ideas), so... silver linings am I right?
The empty shells of fallen Dreamers, those caught by the servants of the King in Yellow, tormented and used for horrible experiments still wander the lost city, always seeking for what they lost.
The Dreamer finds herself in Lost Carcosa, and is saved by a cat of Ulthar.

Work in progress that is taking me way too long, for my pet project with @amyma-ymamy.
Random landscape sketch (a stock photo study done in about 40 min). Keen eyed people may spot my lovely OC strolling around as a dark silhouette.
Nelyafinwe Maitimo Curufinwion (Maedhros Feanorion), when he was still young and happy in Valinor. I don't know why but I have always pictured him with short hair.
Quick sketch (about 30 min) on infinite painter.
"Concerning the Three Rings Sauron could learn nothing from Celebrimbor; and he had him put to death. But he guessed the truth, that the Three had been committed to Elvish guardians: and that must mean to Galadriel and Gil-galad.
In black anger he turned back to battle; and bearing as a banner Celebrimbor's body hung upon a pole, shot through with Orc-arrows, he turned upon the forces of Elrond."
The death of Celebrimbor (my love for doomed Noldor is resurfacing in strength)
