Chimera

an illusion or fabrication of the mind; especially : an unrealizable dream

Made this on my iMac using Adobe Photoshop CS, a tablet, stock photos from sxc.hu and some that I purchased.

Sort of supposed to be a companion to a piece I painted almost a year ago just called "The Forest Fae" but I'm thinking she needs a better name... I will submit her soon, as well as "Hidden Flame", the first in this series of three.

I don't know what she is. You can't see her ears or wings, is she human, fae or elf? Sprite? Dryad? Spirit? Ghost? Strangely, the other two pieces also lack any real defining traits.

So for now I'm calling her a Chimera.

Maybe they're all Chimeras.

I'll leave comments on, even though I won't have time to respond to any that aren't questions.
