Please view full size. Ultra fine detail. This is for Schonee who gifted me her beautiful Kyra. I wanted to do a close up to show her beautiful face but could not resist making a bit more room to include my favorite critters... raven and dragon. I wanted a unique wood elf look for her so again I enhanced her face with makeup and designs from LM which I find work so well with Kyra. Trust... it can very hard to give in this mean old world but it is a critical step to love. It is inate to us all. It is probably the first "emotion" that we all experience as babies when we bond with our moms and dads. And it is trust that let's us grow into friendships later in life. So naturally vital is it that it is shared by virtually all the animal kingdom that gives live births and by birds. It is the glue that lets our pets bond with us and become our beloved fur babies and feather friends. I suspect dragons, being the intelligent creatures of legend that they are, would also learn to trust us - although perhaps at first with a touch of trepidation. Here I try to capture a bit of that magical moment. Previous Kyra
