Artist's Comments

Hard to explain this one, but suffice to say it's a rivalry of power in nature: one fragile and beautiful and bound to the earth, the other dark and shrewd and commanding the sky. Tried to show contrast not only in their expressions, but also in the nature around them--Faeren has more swirly, mossy forest and butterflies, while Morgan has mostly stick-like branches. Morgan steals his powers from the wood, they are not given to him freely. His wings are also stolen, but that's a long story. ^__^ I really enjoyed painting this, despite how long it took to complete. Full view please!

I love the contrast in the color and tone of the two characters, although it feels as though the effect would be made stronger if it were more side-to-side than up-to-down. Just my thoughts
:iconshaolinwolf:

Cut out of class because it's useless information, They got a mouth that just attacks imagination, I couldn't care because it's only aggravation.

By the time you read this, you've already read it.

Lovely contrast, and gotta disagree with whoever said it might be stronger side-to-side. Vertical like this helps reinforce the commanding-the-sky and bound-to-earth aspects. Very nice job!
