The Seelie & Unseelie are the light & dark courts of the Fae respectively. Seelie even shares a root with the Scottish word for "happy." But don't let that fool you, the Seelie are just as dangerous as their more covertly destructive counterparts. Art: B. Froud

Don't have much in terms of critique.

I figure if you're gonna go the way of classic fantasy, that Brian Froud can serve as inspiration. He did concept art for Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth, and various faerie / folklore paintings.

The sun used to live among the San of the Kalahari as a man, unusual only in that when he lifted his arms bright light escaped his armpits. Eventually he was flung into the sky to drive out the prior darkness of the world.

Maybe when I was 4 or 5? I don't remember much. But I've always been a big fan of Brian Froud's artwork and I think he did a lot of the concepts for it ☺️

DAW book covers Don't Bite The Sun, by Tanith Lee (1976). Brian Froud's artwork is spot-on for this book.

Bwbach, a Welsh domestic hobgoblin, is a good friend to have in your corner. He'll do household chores in exchange for bowls of cream. Unless you're a member of the clergy--then you're at the mercy of his pranks.

Mother Aughra from the stream last night! I think she deserves her own tweet, no? Felt so natural to explore Froud's shapes, it actually surprised me a little

Managed to get another one done. At this point I was letting Siri choose which one to do and it picked ‘ suggestion of “any Skeksis” from and I LOVE Brian Froud’s work. Couldn’t decide if I liked it with or without color, so you decide.
