Fantasy on Paradeby ~brightredrose

Traditional Art / Drawings / Fantasy

Ink and Watercolor on Bristol
(Microns, Crowfeather nib, small brush)
11x17
This goes without saying, but the stars were done digitally. xD

_{Green is in the mistletoe
And red is in the holly,
Silver in the stars above
That shine on everybody.
Gold is in the candlelight and
Crimson in the embers.
White is in the winter night
That everyone remembers.}</i>

I finished my college finals a few days early, and since I was stuck in a dorm with nothing to do, I figured it would be nice to actually take a stab at a little group Christmas-cheer-dispersal. Also to kind of get me in the spirit of it too, as my month of December started today. Many more people deserve to be here, and I apologize for that, as it was never my intention to slight anyone.

I did slim down everyone's design to the absolute essentials. Because honestly, pen and ink is already so detail-oriented--the designs would look great separately, but not together. Biggest liberties were taken with Nolie and Linahdette, as they got slashed down to just their basic colors (and Linah's waaaay too yellow).

Aaaaand I was sort of trying to make it Christmas-y (characters with props like torture devices, skulls, and severed human ears were subsequently asked to remove them for the shot and graciously obliged me).

It's a quickie. But I hope you like it. I have to start on my ESS now. XD

From left to right: Nolie is *WhiteEyedCat's, Linahdette is *Frosted-Signature's, Gurth is ~Unenvied's, Avice is my problem, =Candrence comes next, and King Kious is owned by *Zafonic.

I'm going to allow full-size download for about a week if anyone's interested.

Thank you so much! I love this, Nolie looks lovely and her Christmas tack looks great on her. Her design looks fine, it doesn't look like your really changed much about her.

Sorry that it took me so long to comment

Whenever I go through the art of my watchers I skim most of it, but leave yours until I can properly read and comment, which means that I get a build up of your artwork so then it takes me longer to actually look at it!

Ha! I'm honored that you count my stuff worthy of keeping around.

Thanks so much for all the feedback, and I'm glad you like this.

Beautiful

You're so talented!

Thank you! 8D

ZOMG!!! This is the best Candrence picture I've ever gotten!! I have tried making a traditional painting of my character, Candrence, but mine didn't turn out very well, lol. Before even reading the description, I was able to spot my precious Candrence, or at least, I was hoping that's who I was seeing, lol. I absolutely love her in the tack you gave her! It's now making me want to make a new painting of her but with tack, lol.

Thank you sooooo much for such a wonderful Christmas gift!! Actually, this could also be my birthday gift, hahahaha.

~brightredrose Dec 21, 2011 Professional Traditional Artist

Haha, yeah, both you and ~Unenvied...like I said, December birthdays...makes it convenient for us to draw you somethin', but probably a tad inconvenient for you.

So glad you like it! And Happy Birthday, by the way!

=Candrence Jan 1, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Eeeks! It's been a while since I checked my messages, lol. Thank you for the birthday wishes,

It turned out to be a pretty fun birthday

Even if it was spent visiting my in-laws' house a good 4-hour drive away from home, hahahaha

~brightredrose Jan 1, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

Oooh, yikes. Well you have nice in-laws, if I remember correctly?

=Candrence Jan 8, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Yes, my in-laws are pretty tolerable, lol. They have their moments, lol, well, at least the mother-in-law, lol. But this time was pretty nice. We showed up on the 17th of Dec and stayed until the 22nd. And my mother-in-law led me to believe that she forgot about my birthday and would have to their small-town version of a Wal-Mart to get me something, lol. But, it turned out that she already had my gift, which was quite a big collection of stuff from Bath and Body Works, and also got me, not one, but two ice cream cakes from DQ, hahaha. One regular one with Happy Birthday, Vanessa on it and the other was a strawberry cheesequake cake! It was awesome! Hahaha

~brightredrose Jan 8, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

Two cakes, nice! XD Sad that my eyes went straight to that part of the comment.
