Artist's Comments

The title came first. :) It's a drink actually.

I hadn't done Ataraxe in a while, and thought he deserved a brooding full body portrait.

The scene depicts him on the Lookout Knoll, gazing towards the Gryphon Mounatins.

My computer froze before I had a chance to save my grass, and the new one I had to make (yes, I had to restart the damn thing and lost all the work up until my lats save) is not up to par with the first version, you know how THAT is, redoing something you just did from scratch... So sorry abut that.
And the ocean, like real shortcut there, it should look all stormy and wavy but I gave up on that, it just looked weird. Mayeb I'll go back and work on it, who knows.

Once I had gotten a good bit on the way I realized it is quite similar to my portrait of Fallfrost, but that can't be helped. XD

As per usual it was created completely in photoshop, taking I have no idea how many hours so don't ask.

The colours are so intense, it really gives off a stormy atmosphere that compliments your character beautifully!

I've experienced loosing hours of work due to my computer crashing before and can sympathise! I never wanted to re-do any of the lost work xD

Despite that, the grass still suits the image even if it didn't take as long as the first time round. It looks very good! <3

hehe. The Dark and Stormy is my FAVORITE drink! I had it for the first time last halloween :) Gorgeous as always. I think the ocean and grass are just lovely. We artists are our own worst critics
