Sun God in Winterby *messa

Fan Art / Digital Art / Drawings / Games

I have been struggling through a huge art block. Felt good to come out with this. Went back to a sumi-e inspired style, which I always enjoy working with, and inserted bits of my older coloring style. I like going back to it because it's letting me play with colors a little more.

Thank you so much!

I really love the way you drew this. Something about it is that it looks so simple, but majestic and beautiful at the same time.

Are you searching for Long Lost Landscapes?
Lit by Flowers and Crystal Cascades?
Where the Lamb lays down with the Lion,
Where the Wolf is one with the wild.
