Winter's Keepby ~ReneAigner

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Landscapes & Scenery

Entry for the Illustration of the week activity at conceptart.org.
This is the briefing:

'Far into the mountains it lies. On a clear day you might catch a glimpse of it, near the top of the coldest peak.
Winter's keep. Its frozen spires stretching towards the pale sky. No one knows who raised it, only that they're long gone.
It's gates has been frozen shut for centuries and no smoke rises from it's chimneys.
But rumor has it, that on the coldest night of the year, when it is so cold that no one dares venture out, an eerie light can be seen patrolling it's battlements.'

I love this pic. Maybe there's someway that I can convert the fence to my home to this wall. Coming home would certainly feel epic every time.

The way the land glides upward to either side is very captivating

this is a worthy ancestor of the romantic movement, great composition and rendering!! Caspar DAvid Friedrich is great in you.

I myself have written a dungeon arena where all soldiers are trapped, built in a canyon in the middle of the earth. The armies screaming inside and are fed whipped cream by the Goddess of hate to calm them down. None of you is interested to illustrate a mythology? I got some sceneries like the "river of injustice" a waterfall mounding in a place where angels can see the shipwrecks falling down from a beach. It also has three hurricane like eyes to suck the passion out of the earth. Others are for instance a mountain rim with fire behind it and one tall silver sculpture to reflect the light. Its a classical mythology based on Greek Allegoric imagery and scenery. If you read a few pieces you should find it unique and not been written for 2000 years, i desperatly need art to make clips on youtube. woman reading it and placing text. Finally it would be published of course the book is getting a lot of interest lately. also for instance, a girl is given a sword, trapped on a mountain it lashes the sword into the mountain tablet, she dies and is reincarnated into a giant cloud, an angel dark standing over the lands with giant wings, while a cloud overtakes the lands, she plays with it with her wedding finger. whil the mountain bursts flames in the distance,... i'm not getting into the story its not just these sceneries of course.
