I'm not accusing or anything...but some of these are very very familiar to Brian Froud's Faeries...if you used them as a reference, you should probably, for legal purposes, put down that you did.
Actually, no! o.O I was very inspired by Brian Froud's works when I did this, I think, yes - but I didn't use any of them as a reference... not consciously, at least. I think maybe I was being very influenced by Froud's style at the time I did this (2005)... But somehow I wouldn't notice that if you hadn't pointed that, it may look very Froudy, really... oh my.
I only used a photo reference for the white guy... and the mushrooms.
You got me worried, hahah.
I was just asking...as long as you didn't like reference them directly it isn't a big deal. I don't see anything major happening...I just really could see the influence..I love Brian Froud also and the composition and whatnot is very Froudish. I love it though....great work

I adore this painting! All your different kinds of faerie are wonderful, I like your style, and how you see them. I'm totally smitten with faeries that have horns, antlers, tails, and different shades of skin. I especially like your white faerie boy, he seems deceitful, but irresistable. And the mysterious atmopshere and feeling the painting conveys makes me want to climb inside it and be lost forever in that enchanting faerie world!
