A recent finished piece I completed of my own characters, Greer and Aldric.

Greer is a fae enchantress who guards the old forest Aldric manages to find himself lost within. This forest is located in a strange in-between place, the wild and wondrous lands of the fae located between the mortal realm, and the realm of the blessed aka Avalon or where all the supernatural beings dwell.

These are just two more characters I’ll add to the many that float around in my head to do with this world I’m creating piece by piece. Nothing will probably ever come of it, but it’s a fun little project I work on in my spare time.

Traditional media watercolour, gouache and coloured pencil.
