Description

This time I have uploaded a digital painting and a repost! The first upload I was never completely happy with, so here it is again. I got to thinking about the plight of our modern day snow leopard and the fact that its numbers dimish on a yearly basis so came up with this story... Legend has it that long ago Snow Leopards were treated like kings in a distant land. They were considered to be so precious that they were given a special place high in the purple mountains. There they were constantly watched over and protected but most of all loved by the royal elves, who gave their every living moment to them. The snow leopards wanted for nothing, and were happy and content. They knew that their children and their children's children would always have a safe place, there on the magical Purple Mountain... Hi Guys! Hope you are all ok, thanks for all your support, hugs Jane xx Please zoom in on this painting for a better view, thanks ...

marvelous fantasy artwork! Wonderfully painted. ~~ I always feared, that would happen to me some time. You can be so careful with your ressources, but when the creator decides to change his mind about commercial use, what can you do :(

I love the color palette you've used in this image, Jane~ a dreamy, mystical illustration depicting your story of the majestic snow leopard~ Simply beautiful work! So very sorry to hear of your vendor issues~ Thank you for giving us the heads up on Rendo's standpoint re: not to use anything from DeviantArt in products to be sold in the RMP. I hope you have no further problems, my friend. Hope you are doing well & still having a good week~ {{hugs}}

your paintings are so beautiful, so magnificent. You do large cats in such a regal manner, depicting them with such grace and royal bearing. Even your small cats project that "big cat" aura, just as any small cat worth it's salt does, smiles. Your backgrounds are always perfect for your subject matter, just as they are here. So it's a darned shame that some people choose to ignore the license requirements when offering up a product for others to use. It's really awful when someone such as you, who are e er so careful about licenses and giving credit, gets caught up in the carelessness of someone else. You've put such care and so many hours of painstaking work into the products you offer. It just is not fair. I think Rendo is making a big mistake in banning all DA vendors, just my opinion. Theost important thing is that YOU ARE NOT TO BLAME, and everyone can see that.
