Hello there,
I just thought I’d let you know that some of my artwork has now been posted on Marisa’s Fan Club website, if you feel like taking a look. They’re in Photo Gallery - and if you click on the pictures once you’ve opened the album, you’ll see the pictures enlarged and with captions.
If you like them, I’ll post a few more.
wow I knew that was a picture of the mantichore before I saw the title! they’re all excellent. nice job!
Wow! You are such an amazing artist! How did you get the inspiration for those?
AFJ. I’m not sure exactly where the ideas came from, to be honest. From poems I have written mostly, I think. In fact, the mantichore picture predates Faerie Path and was definitely inspired by a poem I wrote - as was the Quicksilver person. The Albion Fair picture represents an idea I particularly like - that beings other than human or animal live with us unseen (by most of us). There’s a quote about that that particularly appeals to me: “…a world as near and unknown to us as the back of a shadow…”
The Heron picture was inspired by a song a friend of mine wrote. Orion is my favourite constellation - for me it’s one of the few star-shapes that really does look like the thing it is meant to be. Art is strictly a hobby for me. Shall I post some more?
YES! you should post more! they are amazing!!!!! and were you saying that you belive any thing is posiable, unprobabol, but posiable?
AFJ. We live in an ifinite universe (even by the standards of the tiny current corner of knowlege we call science) - how can anything be impossible in an infinite universe?
THANKYOU! im all ways telling my friends anything is possible but they all tell me that im a freak!
OMG Allan!!!! Ur artwork is absolutely amazing… how do u do that? I like the one of the girl in the yellow alot. U should definatley post more because it is spectacular!
That is so true. Do you believe that there is actually a Faerie World?
you should draw a picture of all the sisters together
definately. it would be so cool to see what you think the sisters look like!
Alissa i dont nessasarily belive that a faerie world excists but i belive that there could be that it is posiable. i also belive that we are not the only inteligent being that live on earth. that might sound stupid but i get that a lot so…. i mean if you think about it before mabey tigers were discovered i dout people belived there could be such a creature. i mean everyone is so closed minded now!
AFJ. I kind of like the idea of drawing the sisters. I don’t have the time right now, because I’m right in the middle of Faerie Path 6 (you guys wouldn’t want me to stop writing it, would you?). But as soon as I get some free time, I’ll think about drawing them.
we really want to see your drawings but inm pretty sure we would all love to see the 6th book first or at lest the 5th when are you going to post some excerts?
AFJ. My plan is to post one chapter early in October and a second chapter early in December - then the book itself will come out in February 2010. Of course, I do need to get the “final approved” script back from the American publishers in time to do that. I’m sure it’ll be fine.
ok i cant wait!
Me Either!! I love ALL of them! But It is kind of sad. What if the 6th book is the last?
ik! but AFJ said that he would love to write more so….
