Artist's Comments

A "speedpaint" commission for Magistrate of her sphinx character- a black panther with bat wings. The neck is intentionally slightly elongate, per character design. :}

I hope this isn't too dark for most people's screens, I wanted to make sure I left the blacks rich and velvety. Anyone that's seen a black cat at night might understand what I mean.

Chunky oil pastels in Painter, so delicious and squishy.

Edit: 10/27/05 Uploaded a new version, I spent about 6 or 7 more hours re-detailing this one. Enjoy! :}

It's perfectly viewable on my monitor and it's [the monitor] a bit darker than most. Fantastic work with the velvety look. It's appealing to my synesthesia and making me want to eat it.

Aw, that's so pretty. ^^ And I, being the person I am, was even more moved with the addition of the title. ^^ So great. ^^

The sky and rocks are gorgeous...the whole thing is gorgeous! I love the lighting and shading! Beautiful work. ^^

I really like all that space you left all around the character, it gives the piece such a breath. really peaceful atmosphere, such an admirable job ~
