Oh my goodness!!!

I always look forward to seeing your finished pieces! I'm always amazed and stunned, and I feel like (if it's even possible because you're already soooo amazing!!!) you get better and better with each new piece you finish! I still can't even comprehend how such an AMAZINGLY TALENTED artist like you can still improve when you're already SO AMAZINGLY TALENTED!!!!

God bless you and your beautiful work. I will ALWAYS continue to be a fan of your artwork, and I hope I can come even just a little bit close to digitally painting like you someday. ^__^

Aww, thank you so much for your kindness and support!    It means so much to me, and I am so pleased and honored that you enjoy my work!  God bless you, too.  I feel so inadequate in my response...communication in words has never been a strength of mine.  ^__^;;

Of course! I really look up to you and I hope I can be at least half of the artist you are someday (does that make sense lol?)!!!

I still have one of your signed prints from way back then, and I'll continue to follow your work on dA as long as you put stuff up. ^_^

I've always loved your Morgan pictures, but this one made me fall for him all over again. This is such unique lighting for you. I love it. You just keep continuing to grow. The realism elements mixed with the fantasy, and the amazing lighting.... just simply stunning.

Aww, thank you so much!    I'm so pleased that you like it!  I enjoyed painting him.  I wish I could do so more often.

"Bitch, please. I'm fabulous."

That was my first thought at looking at this. Not that it isn't gorgeous. I'm just that immature.

I love this. The lighting on the forehead/eyes brings so much realism into this. I mistook it for a photograph on Tumblr before I properly looked at it.
I really like your Morgan arts too.

Morgan was always my favourite of yours for all those years since I first found you on Elfwood, before I even joined DeviantArt (Ad that was 6 years ago. Have I really been stalking you that long), and it's been wonderful to see his (and your growth). I still have a soft spot for Feral, ancient as that picture is now, back before your love of foliage happened to him. It's just such fun to go back trough the gallery, and see his growth. Ad being so damn attractive doesn't hurt his case either, even if he is still grouchy as ever.

And that lighting (and plant stubble) is to die for.

  Thank you so much!!  lol, I remember "Feral"...I remember being so proud of it at the time, though I'm afraid to look back at it now.  Morgan will always be Morgan, and I suppose even his foliage must have learned to be grouchy now.  XD

You've really outdone yourself with this one. I'm usually just a silent watcher, even though I enjoy most all of your work, but this one it truly outstanding. The lighting alone is superb, and everything else from the hair across his eyes down to the feathers on his coat is just perfect.

I've always loved Morgan best of all your characters (there's something about his dark nature that just draws me in), so I'm pleased to see him worm his way into your attention as often as he can.

AdeleLorienne In reply to Saerileth [2014-12-25 09:31:14 +0000 UTC]

Aww, thank you so much!    I am always pleased to see him, too...even if he tends to make himself known right in the middle of important, deadline commission work that I cannot break away from.  He never wants to be drawn when I have time for him, only when I don't.  XD

Saerileth In reply to AdeleLorienne [2014-12-31 13:48:38 +0000 UTC]

Haha, so he's the spirit of procrastination, then?

I've been meaning to ask you... would you consider making tutorials or maybe even share some of your brushes? I realise you have a lot of work on your plate and writing guides takes a lot of time, but your style is quite unique and it would be amazing to get a glimpse of your workflow. I'd be especially interested in how you do those insanely detailed bits of foilage, I love them best about your images.

AdeleLorienne In reply to Saerileth [2015-01-11 23:29:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!  I'm afraid I'd be useless at tutorials, though...I wing everything from start to finish, lol.  I get an idea in my head, and it can take me months (due to lack of time outside of work) to finally bring it to a point where I'm ok with it.  I may scrap and start over, and I'm horribly self-conscious and ashamed to show the public anything that is not perfect or finished.  I use a very old version of Photoshop (5.5), and no custom brushes or tricks, just the standard set of round ones.  I mainly paint with the airbrush tool and a lot of patience and trial and error.  Try everything until something works, heh.  So yeah, tutorials with me would be very confusing and rather boring...and teach nothing at all except that I'm slow and indecisive.  ^__^;;;

Saerileth In reply to AdeleLorienne [2015-01-13 09:02:51 +0000 UTC]

Then it's even more impressive what you can achieve with simple  brushes alone! I've gotten into digital art just recently (my parents thought it a good idea to give me a graphics tablet shortly before my finals - talk about temptation!) and I couldn't live without my brush packs But slow and indecisive - yep, that's me as well.

You art is amazing, you never need to feel ashamed about anything. But I can totally relate to how you feel about unfinished things, so if you'd rather not I can understand. Thank you for taking the time to explain, and have a happy time creating! I hope to see Morgan again soon.

I've already gushed over this a bit, but I figure a bit more can't hurt, right?

There are faces that stand-out to us. The chiseled countenance of statues, the smooth contours of profiles in paintings. They loom in our memory, breaking through the fog like the peaks of mountains. They are flash points in our mind. We will never say "Sorry, I thought you were someone else" when we recollect these faces. This is one of those faces. A face that can be glanced at and known immediately that it's a person, and a story, and art - all contained within a few features. Morgan speaks volumes here, all without ever moving his lips.

I'm just gonna sit here... and drool over this hunk of handsome art.  Dude, soooo well done!  I love your Morgan so much anyway.  I've missed his face ;u;   He may or may not have been the inspiration for one of my babies <3  Is that foliage scruffle??  Love love the streak of light; really adds so much 0o0  Can I just snuggle him for a while?

I always love your paintings of Morgan. 

The splash of light has already been talked about, so I'll just say that the imagery of the light against the cool, dark tones reminded me of a beautiful scene from Ladyhawke. You know, this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl-8np… Just that cool, winter scenery with a little bit of warm light. Very beautiful.

Ah! Well, it won't change anything on the level of hottness that Morgan has... naturally. But the scent of moss, earth and pines might be dangerous. I hope Nimri kinda placed a protection shield around him, because I might just snatch him away for a while. e u     é
