Great job.. your art has improved a thousand fold since last year. Very good details. Still need to check out that twisted brush i downloaded. Just looks too confusing. Excellent job on this.

    of all the programs I've seen and the few I have, oddly enough, this seems to be the easiest. It's just like painting with brushes, you just have to play until you find the right one. I don't belive that twisted brush has preformed graphics, but filters are there if needed. I still have alot to learn myself about this program, its amazing how much I still can't figure out by some of the tutorials, but I use my favorite brushes and go from there LOL, still learning as they say.
    thanks so much for the wonderul complment and rating. so glad you like weird LOL

Very very nice! I've seen plenty of people draw these creatures, most of them take a sort of Disney style, and so I appreciate that you have this in your own style. The griffin is beautiful and I love it's front claws. Great job with this!

Comment from Anne


This is amazing the way you have done him, The coloring in this is stunning. The amount of detail is awesome. I like the way you have the wings of the eagle and the way you have completed him with the body of the lion. They go together well. I like the way you have done the water. The way you see the ripples in it and then have the light shining over it are just great. I really like the way you did the sky. I like the way you did the water around his feet. Just an interesting and exceptional work of art. Just beautiful. I think this is one of my favorites!!

An impressive and very colourful image of a mythical beast.
Good use of colour which makes central image stand out against
different coloured background.

Comment from shiloh106


Very creative. Nice use of color tones. Your work on the water is well done, good shading, pretty movement. You have combined the animals nicely. The wings could use a little more work, their tips area a bit rough, but very nice work anyway.

    with the programs you use twisted brush is no doubt really low key LOL. I'm so pleased you like this painting. I have a heck of a time trying to get feathers to look like feathers, any suggestion would be helpful
    thanks again Lorraine

I look for this kind of work. It is fantastic. I am honered to see work such as yours. Most of the time people who I choose to be fans of, well, they rarely get negative reviews from me. You'll have to live with "it's awesome!"
