Artist's Comments

Oh yes, I have not abandoned this project. Merely let it simmer in the back of my mind while I thought on the others I wished to include in it. And so...... we come to Silvestris.

With her words are short, hard to phrase in a coherant manner. She has a gift that takes the breath away, leaves you speechless and struggling to somehow find the words to define what her art brings out in you.

Not just paintings, but emotion, words, her characters are vivid, her world is so real...

And to speak to the woman is to uncover complexity itself. Never ending paradox, intelligence paired with a quick wit. A sense of humor that flashes nearly as brightly as her art. Truly... one of the lights in the world.

This is colored pencils. And trust me.... the scanner completely mutilated it.

<teenzo> I work at renaissance faires, so I'm used to not breathing.

<solthiel>Ahhh... so you're one of those cute girls that all the fat nerds hit on... that must suck.

O.O

Oh...... Wow. Jess this came out so very very awesome. The pose, coloring.... the whole atmosphere you created is absolutely stunning.

I don't know silvestris personally. I just know her art and the part of her writing that is up on Elfwood. But that is enough to leave me speechless every time. I think she absolutely deserved this.

So throw off everything that ties you down and sail out of the safe harbour.

Feel the wind underneath your wings.

Explore. Dream. Discover.
