Description
Lots and lots of time and work on this one. I've not drawn a human figure before, so that was a pain, but the rest was fun, tho tedious. You can see the details in a much larger 1600x2000 version

No, not Merlin, more like Gandalf. Fantastic work, Maria. From a true artist, indeed.
A very brilliant work...V
Incredible, Maria! You have so much artistic talent, and you express yourself in so many mediums! I am in total awe!
Wonderful and very creative realization.....!!! Great postwork......!!!
Awesome painting, Maria! Gosh, you seem to be able to just about ANYTHING you set your mind to! Have a friend at my new job that paints 2d and on a Wacom tablet. How are you making these?
Add my admiration to all the previous comments :-)
OH!! I love fantasy type images. I think you did a great job on the wizard! All the details are wonderfully done! V (:
Outstanding Maria!!
I'm not sure how you created this but it's a wonderful fantasy full of magic. I know you have been using Painter recently too. Looking closely at this image there's a general softness throughout but just here and there there is great detail, for example, the embroidery work on the wizard's robe, some of the flowers and the bark on the tree. It's those details in contrast with the softness that make this fascinating and encourages the viewer to look much deeper. This would make a wonderful illustration for a book. Well done.
So, so beautiful, Maria. I love the fantastic quality of the drapes and the forceful composition. Magnificent!
