Artist's Comments

The kids of winding circle - from left to right, Briar, Tris, Daja and Sandry (and thier dog - Little Bear) - from Tamora Pierce's circle of magic books.. (but I prefer the tortall books more - there's no Raoul in this series T_T )
Anyway, this is one of those 'scribbles that went further pics' - where you scribble something and go - hey that looks okay and decide to colour it - and on the way it turns into a much bigger job than you first though because the scribble needed so much fixing up!!
*cough* anyway I quite like the background in this - because I came so close to just whacking in some clouds and going 'yup, done' - but I eventually decided to do it properly (for once) :D

COOOOOL.
I love those quartets by Tamora Pierce.
Did you know that she plans to write a book on just about Tris, and how she'll cope with being at uni and pretending to me a 'normal' mage?
I've always pictured Tris to be a bit more chubby, though. But I guess people have different views.
Anyway, I really like the background, especially those clouds that you nearly gave up on. :D

yay! hmm, about the tris - i guess she IS meant to be chubbier - trust me, I thought about it too...but when I first read the books, I always thought that it was just her self-image of herself that was fat - like, she had such a low opinion of herself that she always thought she was ugly and chubby - when she really wasn't that fat...
then I reread them and realised that other people describe her as 'chubby' so...uh...there goes my reasoning... :D but the pic was already drawn by then :D
anyway, I didn't know about the new book - sounds good :D I want another book with Raoul from tortall though ^_^
