Artist's Comments

Watercolors, 33 x 50 cm.

This is a painting based on a old German saga called Lohengrin.

In this image you see Ortrud's castle in the forest. It's a bit overgrown and also a bit dilapidated. Ortrud represents the the evil pagan witch and former ruler, who is still believing in the old gods while the "civilized" rest of the population is already christianized. She lives alone with few of her followers in this castle in the forest and makes plans how to regain power.

If obsession is a bad thing, I'm doomed.

5 out of 7 deadly sins isn't bad, right?

Lust and love are synonyms in MY dictionary!

I change my mind. There are such things as a terrible artist. If you don't want to be one of them PRACTICE. :thumbsup:

Wow, that's beautiful!

I love how the carved face in the wall isn't entirely visible at first, it makes it more mysterious~

I'd love to see more of this story ^^
