'Fire and Hemlock'
I've been in love with this Diana Wynne Jones' story for a long time now (all her books really), and was drawn to the challenge of depicting this idea of a fairy tithe ritual.

Witch's Art Studio
I had an idea stuck in my head about what a witch's art studio might look like. I imagined that half used paint tubes would be mixed about with various potion ingredients, and that conjured lights would be floating in convenient locations. This project also featured an animated element (the portrait blinking), since I decided the portrait would slowly become more and more self aware as the painting went on. In this scene, the artist has stepped away for a moment as her portrait surveys her workspace and the hovering
fore-lights illuminate her supplies.
