Description

The Ancient One,

Nobody knows what her true name is.  It is said, that she was in the eastern foothills of Dver-Gamel long before the Gold Road was built by the Dwarves and the Abelardian City States were founded.  Some say that she is a fallen immortal; while others say that she is a powerful witch.  Either way, she shuns contact with others and is rarely seen, but she has never been reported as harming anyone.  She is an unknown quantity, and the King would like to know more.

Created using Character Artist 3+ from ProFantasy Software (secure.profantasy.com/default.…)



As a side note, I have also used some techniques for this character that I learned in the first two weeks of school (For my Bachelor degree in Fine Arts: Communication Design).

It uses the three aspects of Unity: Continuity, Repetition, and Proximity.

Continuity: The character is in the classic S pose with the left arm and foot forward. The right foot is placed farther back, the right shoulder is below the left shoulder, and the bosom is in front of the right arm showing that the torso is slightly turned to the right. To keep the continuity, I placed the ponytails at the same angle as the shoulders creating Unity.

Repetition: I used repeating patterns of gold/yellow to create Unity. The inner skirt, the lace, the bracelets, the clasp, and the hair decorations are all gold/yellow.

Proximity: I used two sets of proximity to create Unity. The gold/yellow items are clumped into two areas of proximity with the bracelets, lace, and inner skirt within proximity of each other and then again with the hair decorations and the clasp in the upper region. This is also an example of Asymmetrical Balance, where the upper region is in balance with the lower half with two areas of repeating patterns and proximity.

Technical stuff, but it is helping me to be a better artist. At least I hope. Lol! :-)
