Reccer's comments: Look at my icon. Now look at this painting, Now back to my icon. This painting is not my icon but seriously, look at his face. Skills, that's what. I'm on a horse. Marie is one of my absolute favorite artists in this fandom (and in a few others as well) and this, this is why. Everything she does is gorgeous and I have no freaking idea how she does it (I'm guessing the answer is a combination of innate talent and rigorous training. But this is coming from a non-artist. So I'm gonna fall back and say "magic", which is what I really think). This is one of her gen pieces, but she really draws all sorts of things.

Digital paintings should not be this attractive. There is something wrong with me.
