Artist's Comments

Pontiff of the sea. Presented here personally acting as a missionary from the deep. He carries a gallows: the sign of their martyr. He smokes a hallucinogenic kelp from his long pipe (smoking being one pleasure dry land can offer him). He's actually wearing pilgrim's garb, and his papal attire at home in the sea is stunningly beautiful in comparison to this dour travelling wear. The bleached driftwood tied to his girdle is an element of his ecclesiastical dress.
An emissary of the Fey Folk kisses his coral ring in supplication to their developing alliance against man.

These moments of winning the war of art. Defeating resistance.
Leaving my shadow behind me."

like your other awesome pictures, the detail on this is simply insnae, and like a lot of other pictures i find to look parts of of this picture creep from the borders giving an effect that i am quite fond of. The background of this picture fits perfectly to the mood of the character. Good work.

Absolutely beautiful as always.. The driftwood is so real.. I knew instantly what it was before I read the caption.. The stories you add to your work just make it perfect.. I know others have said it before, but you should gather all these things and publish them in a book some day.. You are truely a master.
