“The Repentant Dragon”
Oil on canvas, 16″x10″ wide.
Artist Commentary: I’ve always had a fondness for dragons. However, that fondness has always been tempered by the realization that, traditionally, dragons are always evil.

“The Messenger”
Oil on canvas, 21″x13″ wide.

The Grey Pilgrim”
Oil on canvas, 21″x13″ wide.
Artist Commentary: I spent Saturday with Mithrandir walking the foothills of the Misty Mountains. The light was golden and it glowed on glade and glen, field and forest. We stopped to rest along the roadside and watched the sky turn from cerulean to violet as evening set in.

“Haydee”
Oil on canvas, 14″x11″ wide.
Artist Commentary: This was a mystical piece that was, in part, inspired by the Princess Haydee from Dumas’ The Count of Monte Cristo. The image is metaphorical, and reflects the light of truth that surfaces in the text as the happenings in Janina come back to haunt the Comte de Morceuf.
