Description
First I want to say a massive thank you for everyone for liking my Merlin Trio so I thought I throw this one in as a little present. This one only took 5 hours but I just wanted to concentrate more on her beautiful face. I hope that you all like this one and continue to keep checking on my gallery once in a while for my new stuff. Thanks againRelated content

I think this one is my favorite one out of all your Merlin paintings. It's beautiful! I love the jewels on her dress.

Thank you, but I did rush it though. There's little detail on her clothes and nothing in her hair

Artist must submit their own work, but you don't have to setup a profile or anything. I encourage you to check out the site and submit this yourself.

Your comment inspires me and make me want to paint paint paint. Was you expecting this kind of painting when I'd told you I was painting her today? You just wait till I bring your character to life, hopefully that should blown your mind

No, I got that it was Morgause - but I did not expect it to look so incredibly real!! I find your work just... what is the word... mesmerising? Like I can look at it for hours and hours. If I were a millionaire I would just decorate my house with your paintings. Instead I'll just have to save up and buy prints
I'm so nervous! And grateful and - emotional? My writing means the world to me, my little outlet for everything! I'm actually really glad I met you, and all thanks to Arthur Pendragon Who knew?!

It funny but if I put the time in, I could paint so that you would have so much difficulty knowing that it was a painting and not an actual photo. I think thats why I rush it, so my little flaws come out and people can say it is a painting. But the feelings mutual, I'm glad I've met you. It so nice for someone to say Hey, I love your work. I normally churn out a painting every two days or less, who do you want me to paint?

Dinky-Mew In reply to jht888 [2013-04-03 07:06:58 +0000 UTC]
I think you should paint who you have the inspiration to! I know it can be hard to be 'made' to do someone and I would hate to put that on you, so please just paint who you 'feel', does that make sense? If you are asking celebrities though I would love to see you pull off Tom Hardy in RocknRolla or in This means War - I tried to draw him and the little boy from that film and he came out looking like some kind of strangled, shaved poodle haha!!
Other celebrities I think would give you a challenge... hmmm...A nice one would be Andy Whitfield from the Spartacus series, he passed away from cancer last year I think it was, and he was amazing! The talent and depth he brought to the character of Spartacus had me hooked from the first episode despite the racy series (Which honestly is something I don't normally watch!)
Whoever you decide to paint next though I am so looking forward to it!!

Hello and thanks for your reply. You write lovely by the way, its almost like ou are speaking. I'm going to do one more for the Merlin gang and that is Mordred, what do you think?
So do you work for the people who do the Mass Effect series? that would be such a amazing people to tell people

Dinky-Mew In reply to jht888 [2013-04-03 09:43:25 +0000 UTC]
Sadly no, I wish I did! I'm just a young student/carer/working mummy with a hobby. As I have three little ones rushing underfoot I don't get out of the house a lot - and I tell them stories all day long, then at night I find it a relief to sit and write.
I don't normally play games, but I played Mass Effect for the Xbox 360 and fell in love with the characters and the way Bioware made it 'your' game by the way it was designed. But as always you are limited, so I started writing the fiction to break those limits and actually get into the characters the way I would want them to be. Bioware should hire me though. *Nods*
But no, normally I am a student social worker - studying to be a child protection social worker - and I have three babies, 4,3 and 8 months - and I work relief shift for a home for adults with learning difficulties. I sound really old when I say that all like that but I swear I'm not that ancient yet! I'm only 24 >.<
I would love to take it to a publisher you know, not the Mass Effect stuff because there are too many canon characters in it for it to be ok'ed by Bioware - but my original work I would love to have published one day. It's a big dream though! Need to get a practical job first haha!
Mordred would be awesome! I cannot wait to see it!!!

wow you sound so passionate about it all and ever so busy at the same time. Saying that, this site is all the platform you'll ever need if you wanted to get noticed as I imagine that major employers would use this massive site to 'interview' people that they are interested in. But how do you fit everything in? But don't give up on your dreams though, you're too good for that

Aww thank you!
It's hard on a platform like DeviantART because it is absolutely brimming with amazing talent - and I hold no illusions about my work, it's just a hobby that I am really passionate about. But your art, oh my lordy - if I could paint and draw like you I would never stop! University? Nah! I would just be painting all day everyday!!
You are so blessed to have such an amazing skill. I did art when i was in highschool - I was a'ight, but nothing like you - the written work let me down though because I wasn't interested in the modern artists they gave me the choice of. I wanted right about Albrecht Durer haha! I then went to university in Stirling (At 17 I am proud to say - I got an unconditional offer at 17, that is almost unheard of, *pops collar*) but I flunked out, couldn't handle being so far away from home and so went back to my mammy and got a job instead.
Then I had my babies and I was still working when I decided i wanted to go into social work and so went back to university. I'm going into my third year this September if I can pass my essay Almost done! It's a four year degree with honours so it's hard bloody work!
And wow I do talk a lot.. sorry! I just find you so easy to talk to!

Don't talk yourself down, you can tell by your comments about your work that people love what you do, and that's all that matters. Please don't give it up as you never know whats around the corner, you have to be in it to win it so to speak. My painting of Mordred will cheer you up when I finish it later
