I finally got around to finishing the mountainscape WIP that I posted back in January! I’ve been reading this amazing book called The Fifth Season that involves a lot of magic rock-moving powers, and that inspired me to add some of that mood to this painting. I included some close-ups and the original WIP image. Hope you guys like it!

Loish

Wow this is majestic. I love the concept and the detail. It kind of reminds me of Elsa from frozen when she is singing in the mountains and she uses her magic. I was waiting so long for a patrèon post but it was so worth it. I can wait for the second wip from the 3 wipe to get finished.

wow! I just saw the final work in my email and couldn't breath for a second I guess?! This is really amazing, thank you so much, for your work! The sketch reminds me a lot to the video game "journey" :) I love it, that you start drawing more environments, your style is perfect for this!

Daniel H. Alcojor

That's amazing! I love the whirl of magic! Also, I loved those books, you definitely have to finish the trilogy. It's so cool!

Loish

i never played journey but the vibe and feel of it has always inspired me. it's just so poetic and emotional in a way.

Shelkie

Omg, this is amazing. You are able to give so much personality to a mountain!!! I am happy you are sharing environment illustration too. It is so inspiring ❤️

It‘s so interesting to see how a sketch can change and develop into having a completely different mood, while retaining most of the composition! It also matches the weather outside of my window nicely. We‘ve had some April-snow this morning with the nicest snowflakes and that soft, magical light which often accompanies snowfall.

This is so beautiful I wanna cry - love all the texture in this painting and the smoothness, the flow, awesome

Lynn Zammit Russell

Wow this is amazing! Feels almost like an alien planet ready to be discovered. It feels so magical and serene.

Bill

Very evocative! N.K Jemisin is a fantastic writer, and Broken Earth a super series! This would have been a very cool book cover.

Holly H

This looks so beautiful!!

Rebeka

It really looks magical! I love it

Loish

Loish

Jill Anderson

My god those peachy tones against the snow. I would love to buy a print of this! It's definately got that sublime feeling the German romantics had 😍

Emily Cartier

Oh wow this is so sparkly. It feels like there’s glitter in this picture and I can see perfectly well there isn’t. But it feels like glitter!

Roxolana Krywonos

These are stunning ❤️ 🤩 I'd love a tutorial on snow colours, your use if temperature is anazing

Ashley Cirimeli

oooh this might be one of my favorite pieces you’ve created! I love how many leading lines there are, and the contrast between sharp hard edges and flowy magic.

Carmen Sinek

Oh man, the entire Broken Earth trilogy is an absolute treasure. N.K. Jemisin is a modern master, and her prose always makes me want to paint, too. This is such a lovely piece. 💜

Slow Burn Studio

Stunning. Your work feels effortless and graceful until I think about doing it myself 😂 then I'm like, yeah effortless isn't the word 🤣

Tyler

I love the direction you went with this! What beautiful magic!

Martin Silz

Amazing. I love the swirly movement of the rock and the fantastic lighting of the scene. Nice work.

Loish

thanks! yes i have that too.. she has such a cinematic way of describing the events and it makes me visualize more than any other book i've read.

Andrea

what the heck this is so fantastic its bananas im losing my mind

ChrisiaDraws

This peace really resonates with me! It reminds me of The Snow Queen's children's book I had as a kid, with some very flowy ethereal, illustrations, and somehow I see the little sister going to save her brother here. It's really beautiful!

Anne-Claire

Love the colors and energy!

Niquey

Gorgeous!!

Anska

I love winter and cold temperatures, so I don‘t mind it too much, but I do hope it gets reliably warmer by the end of the month, so I can take start growing salad and pumpkins and all the yummy things.

Greg Schultz

Wonderful when you break away into subjects like this. Mystery and emotion in those lines of power.

Loish

thanks! I'm glad that this is sparking a story in your mind. When I started finalizing it I realized it was really missing some story which is why I added the magical elements!

Kathryn Cook

WOW 😍 Loish your imagination is so beautiful

nartista

It is just so good! I love how you capture movement and emotion! 🤩

Hannah Euler

One of the best snow terrains I've seen in a really long time.

Actually this was what got me the most! I remember something with a gir's long braid and the polar winds, and that's what I saw in the magic in you piece <3
