Ian, from the novel Order of the OddFish by James Kennedy. This was drawn for a exhibition of art based upon characters or situations expressed within the book. I liked Ian a lot, a wavery, somewhat awkward but good natured boy.

Beautiful! I just blogged about it here:

[link]

Excerpt:

"I’m blown away by this! It really captures what I wanted Ian to be; both his unstable, adolescent good looks and his tentative awkwardness. The rose in his hand and the butterfly perched on his rifle give him such a fragile, earnest air. It seems fraught with symbolic import, like some allegorical code. I also appreciate that Ian is in proper knightly raiment. It gives it the proper medieval, chivalrous atmosphere. The brooding weather in the background, with the nightmarish half-face in the clouds, is a masterful complement to Ian’s uncertain mood. It’s a really astonishing piece!"

Thanks again. I'm really honored you did this.
