Dart Portrait
The original line art that Foxeye colored for the 2014 pinup calendar.

At the last minute, Dart had no artist and wasn't going to be in any of the calendars, so since I already had a Dart pinup pose it was decided that I could just add a couple more poses to it.  Surprisingly, the three images fit…

Tao Reef
Reef with both dark and light sea friends.  Poor guy has known both sides.

I've had this sketch sitting around for quite a while.  I had the idea of creating four very finished pencil drawings of the elfin elders as the four elements (with lots of other symbolism in them as well).  Reef was going t…

A Little Fun
Posted by popular demand,  ;D another of the Cutter and Skywise fur-sharing challenge.  (See my sketch "Intimate Moments" for an explanation).

I think this is the only other one I have scanned.  A little more explicit than the other, but still tasteful enough not requiring a mature label.

"Guts And Glory" by Carol Lyon (Windrider)
2011 Fan Art Calendar:  COVER

"Come on, Spine, tell us one of your stories"

"Tell us about the time you and my father caught that big huge nasty spinefish together --"

"Oh no!  <sigh> Not that one again!  That one's just full of guts and glory and no heart.  I want to hear something new --"

Stormsong
This character sketch of Spine's unseen lost brother, Stormsong, isn't much more than a doodle.  I was just playing around with trying for a family resemblance, along with trying to develop one of those impossible EQ hairstyles, so he looked related to Spine, but not his twin.  I am not much of a co…

Stargazing WIP
A little sketch that turned up during the move.  I'm going to have to finish this one.

(I'm sure Ember is supposed to be in there somewhere around Cutter's lap)

You Can't Go Home Again
*not a spoiler*

A speculation about the future: Skywise and Suntop return to Abode after centuries in the Palace, during which they have become nearly High Ones. They find that you can't go home again.

This was done before I worked on Full Circle and I didn't know anything about how Suntop would l…

Wolves, then and now
Just for fun, since I can't really enter this challenge due to discovering EQ too late in life.

Top:  Age 6.   Okay, I think these might actually be Lassie, but honestly a wolf would have looked exactly the same only grey.   ;D

Middle:  Age 15.  Probably copied from a photo.  Could really have used…

"Duet" (Cover of In All But Blood)
It wasn't planned that way, but this is the painting that landed me the job with Warp.  I wanted to do a take-off on Raphael's School of Athens with Cutter as Aristotle and Skywise as Plato, it was just coincidence that it worked for the cover of In All But Blood.

I've never posted this anywher…

Bald Wavedancer for Micinjensue (colored)
This drawing was for Micinjensue at the Scroll of Colors, who was facing the prospect of chemotherapy and wanted to see pictures of strong, happy, bald elves - especially Wavedancers.

This was my very first attempt at coloring a scanned sketch on PhotoShop.  Unfortunately, I only had a mouse.   :P  …

Dart Pin-up
This sketch was done as a thank you for the ever-helpful Dartfan, who did the Fan Calendar formatting for a couple years.  He was bemoaning the fact that, being in Australia, he would never get to go to a comics convention and get a sketch by Wendy.  So I drew him this "convention" sketch as a conso…

Brothers Still
NOT A SPOILER!!

Another old sketch I did for the much-missed GAZERS website.  This was just my interpretation of what could happen in the future, now that Skywise is immortal and Cutter isn't.  I did this before working for Warp!

Ember and Choplicker
A preliminary sketch, working out the poses for a "splash page" that was part of my Warp submission packet.  This page was to be my proof that "I Can Draw Wolves" and had very difficult perspectives on the wolves that had to be worked out separately.

I combined scans of the original sketch, inked v…

Backlit Portrait
Another old GAZERS submission.  Lighting inspired by a Bob Dylan album cover.   ;D  I also tried to capture more than one aspect of Skywise's character in one portrait without copying Elfmom.

A Study In Blue and White
Another image I did for the old GAZERS fan site.

Medium: Watercolor and gouache on Bristol.
This was done with a limited palette.  I only used ultramarine blue, burnt sienna, Payne's grey (instead of black), and white.  Well, then I cheated and used yellow for Timmain's eyes and mixed it in the blu…

Let's start with the really old stuff first!   ;D  I still like inking and coloring this way, though, and the idea and image holds up pretty well.

Winged Victory
Aroree as the Nike of Samotherace

Sketch of an idea for the 2006 Elfquest Through the Ages calendar (I felt the original Nike was too "vertical" to adapt to a horizontal format calendar).  Unused except for a banner Dartfan made advertising the contest.
