"Nature’s Domain" is a production painting created to illustrate the meeting between Pan, the God of Nature, and the animal characters that are accidentally lured into his presence.

This scene is from chapter seven: "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" from The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame.

"This is the place of my song-dream, the place the music played to me," whispered the Rat, as if in a trance. "Here, in this holy place, here if anywhere, surely we shall find Him!"

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-10-05
Nature's Domain by *claudiasutton

Now and then a truly exceptional piece of Fan Art turns up here on dA and we can't scramble quickly enough to DD it. In the case of this piece, at least three different Gallery Directors loved it so much they wanted to do the honors! Suggested by webwiz23 and with the backing of myself, Cooley, Skifi and Cosmosue, this gorgeous tribute to Wind in the Willows captures the peace and silence of the most touching chapter of the book. The style is reminiscent of a frame of classical 2D animation, though gorgeously rendered with much greater depth, and the characters are spot-on. Check the rest of Claudia's gallery for more wonderful pieces like this. ( Suggested by !webwiz23 and Featured by `animator )

I keep forgetting you have so much work I have not seen. I have finally started to really get into digital painting in the last year or so. I hope to build a portfolio of work in this area to well get some more work. I may post some in the next few weeks. Funny I have also been doing much traditional painting also. So love my painting seems to have kicked in again of late.

I love the mood created by the lighting and color in this.
