Artist's Comments

Fire-lit Thicket

Magic the Gathering; Shadowmoor. ©Wizards of the Coast

Acrylic, Approx 11" x 7.5".

Original artwork; SOLD.
The offering of a fine delicacy for supper can make guests more welcome.

The Shadowmoor world is a twilight setting with a sombre mood. I tried to convey this with a limited palette, and misty landscape. This also enabled pinpoints of light and colour to focus the eye on the entrance to the Boggart's home.

Great work!

A little question: on which surface are you painting? Paper? Canvas?

Thank you in advance for your answer!

Best,

nice layout... the limited palette works great for this one, the subdued colors really add to the mood, and that pinspot of color does draw the eye!
