I am Catori

Description

"Who are you? Speak!"
"I am Catori."

This is a scene from the absolutely amazing book "Song of the Summer King" by J. E. Owen aka :iconelementaljess:. It features the young griffin Rashard aka Shard and the she-wolf Catori. I took some artistic liberty in the scenery and staging.

A few months ago I read a journal by :iconnambroth: advertising Jess's book. It was free to download and I enjoy trying new books, so I thought, "What the heck?" I wasn't sure what to expect, but OH MY GOODNESS. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. If you love griffins and dragons, you should definitely check her books out! Seriously. GO. Now. :)

I had SO MUCH FUN WITH THIS. I know in the past I've been very open about my dislike for doing backgrounds, but I really enjoyed doing this one. It's far from perfect, but I feel like I made some good headway. I learned a lot and I'm excited to try more! I'll be doing (at least) one more illustration for Jess. I also really want to experiment with drawing more of her characters. Because there are so many awesome griffins that I need to draw!
