Artist's Comments

This is fourth in a series of images I've done for my university project.

This scene is taken from 'Tithe' by Holly Black.

Kaye has been captured by the Unseelie court to be their sacrifice in order for them to stay in control of the smaller creatures and keep peace between the two courts. Roiben, under the command of his queen has taken Kaye to get measured up for he sacrificial dress.

This scene shows the moment the skillywidden measures Kaye up with her long arms in order to measure up and Kaye looks around mystified and confused.

Media: Liner pen, Copic Sketch Markers, Ink on watercolour paper.

The colours on the background are awesome, love it. The composition flows well and the colours are balanced throughout the image. Love the Skillywiddens design

Thank you!

You've read Ironside? Is it good? I'm hesitant to get it.

I read it in a DAY!!! And Heart it!

No reason to be hesitant... i read the synopsis and almost put off getting it for a week. (I know I would have gotten it any way, the obsessive in me would demand it!) and I absolutely love it. I giggled most of the way through and when i finished the book i was hugging it and not letting it go.

I DO really like it, but i probubly like tithe a slight bit better. (only slight) and that's cause it's been my favorite book for 5(?) years running.

It's very much worth the read. *goes back to snuggling the book, it hasn't left my possesion since I bought it Thursday.*
