Description


Hi everyone, This went through a number of iterations over the 6 weeks or so that it took to complete – I began with the idea of an ancient dryad presiding over some kind of wedding ceremony, and it evolved into a concept based around birth and parenthood. This dryad is nurturing her own young sapling in the gloaming. The image is about 11500 x 6500 – the biggest I’ve ever done, and was created that large so I can print it off as a mural for my daughter, about 3 metres wide. You can’t see it at this resolution, but the glade is teeming with life – beavers, a fox, wild boar, a stag, a faun, fish, frogs etc – all things she can pick out when this is printed at full resolution. I’ll probably add more as time goes by but I wanted to call this ‘finished’ for now. It was created using my usual technique of combining painting and photography (all my own bar the girl and some stock creatures) - and ended up being built from scratch to about 200 layers, rock by rock and tree by tree ;) It took a long time! Thanks a million for looking and take care, Phil

I LOVE your work, you are such an inspiration! This is really amazing and beautiful, the light, the composition, the mood, the story told by the tree... what a magical world it takes me in!

Fantastic work! After looking at the link to the details, I went back and looked again at all the things I missed on a first look. Definitely worth the time it took.
