Although the concepts are not new, the color pallete and details are beautiful. It's a fun piece to explore with lots of hidden details and in one word it says everything that elves are - magic.

I also appreciate that the artist has given credit to her inspiriations and that speaks both highly of callibre of the person, but also serves to invite more in depth understanding of the piece. Making this connection gives a peek into the eye of the artist and the person behind the artwork.

Also, I love... love the fact that the artist has managed to develop a full pallette of colors. In this one piece I can see nearly all of my favorite colors put together into a great composition. Combining the different layers from the original models for the piece is done with great care and its an enjoyable piece.
