“He Made His Choice, Just as She Has Made Hers” by Margarita LaMara Lapina.
by LaMara
I wanted to show both Treestump and Clearbrook finding their places. He fulfills his dream and becomes a smith; but it is she who helps him all the way through, she is needed, so her place is near him, she gives him strength.

This is very much right on target for this theme. I would say you were a runner-up in the contest - very close.
I like how you frame the view with the arch of rock. The warm glow on the walls from the forge is a nice touch, too. |

Oh, i had a lot of troubles trying to understand the theme, so i'm glad i got it right!
Can't say i'm a good artist (i really should practice more x) and this is my first EQ fanart ever, so my elves are too much like humans... Sigh. That's why hearing that i was close is really exciting - thank you very much for your kind words! |

Haha, this was actually my second idea for a calendar entry! Didn't draw it, obviously, but I love how Treestump and Clearbrook are working together, contently in the forge. This one reminds me much of my own relationship, literally. If could have a forge, my beloved and me would definitely work there together.
I really like how this turned out! Keep drawing elves! |

It's great to see someone choosing to do these two! I love the fact that you've made Treestump as big and beefy as he should be, and I love the detail of Clearbrook's braid draped over his shoulder! But I also want to give you props for the handling of light in this -- well done using that main lightsource, and I particularly like the orangey glow of the forge on the wall in the background.

You did a terrific job - and this being your first EQ fanart piece?! It's wonderful to see Clearbrook and Treestump in the limelight; they tend to get overlooked so often. You did very well with them, and your use of light and shading are great. More, please!
