Gift Art & Commissions
These are pictures by other people, which they have either given to me or created for me by commission.

This was the first picture done for me by Caribou, one of the best furry
artists out there. It's a scene taken from an early mental image I had for Ecce
Femina. As you can see, in this version the story takes place at night,
while in the final draft it turned out to be early afternoon. When I first commissioned
the pic I wasn't sure whether the flowers were placed there by Raven's family
or by Raven herself; the latter would have been symbolic of her, in essence,
saying goodbye to her past. Fortunately, the story turned out to be a bit happier
than that. :) The idea of the flowers being in color while everything else was
black and white was a powerful image for me, one whose effectiveness would only
be diminished, I think, if I tried to put it into words.

My second portrait by Caribou. This is the big version of the picture
that appears in the banner on the home page. Quite a bit cheerier than the first
one, obviously. :-)

This is a pic of Raven hin'Elric, the Lightbringer of Metamor Keep, as illustrated
by Kee Coyote. She's looking much cheerier here than usual. ;-)
