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.

Anyways..I love it...had to :+fav: it

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.

Well, thanks anyway! ^^

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! :wow: :omfg: 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. :clap: I especially like your white faerie boy, he seems deceitful, but irresistable. :D 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! :flirty:
