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…

Timmain with the wolf pack leader who eventually became Timmorn's father.

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.

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…

Bald Wavedancer for Micinjensue
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.

I don't think this unnamed elf is really Windrider as an elf (Windrider would be sailing a fast and crazy "wing raf…

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!

Medium: pencils on vellum

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…

Teamwork
A sketch of an idea for a "splash page," one of two I had in my Elfquest submission packet.  I really need to ink this thing... I got the job before I even finished my submission packet!

Pencil on vellum

Note on composition:  This composition is based on a breaking wave.  The many lines of movemen…

Intimate Moments
A elfquestfanart exclusive!  I've posted this no where else.

This sketch requires an explaination.   ;)  I was chatting with a member of the old Gazers fan site and the subject of same sex elfin relationship came up and why intimate moments are not shown though we all know they happen.  Of course th…

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.

Rough and Tumble
Part of a series of studies I did on Skywise and wolf Timmain.  I was trying to teach myself to draw Elfquest wolves rather than my usual realistic ones.  I think it definitely looks odd to have the wolves look too realistic when paired with the obviously stylized elves.

Cutter with his hands full.    ;D

Uh... not sure if this should be "adult content" or not.

Cutter having a "reunion" with Leetah and Skywise after Kings of the Broken Wheel.   ;D

Medium: pencil on vellum

Notes on the composition: a simple triangle.  Cutter is the foundation of the triangle, just as he is the foundation of the family.  I kept Skywise in character by giving him a cheeky so…
