Faery # 6 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the delay in posting. It's been a crazy couple of weeks here, not all good, but I'm going to try to start posting again regularly. It's time...

First up is one of the Faeries from Max.

This Faery is one of the many faeries that attends the first performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream (written by William Shakespeare, as part of an agreement he has with Morpheus). The performance takes place on June 23, 1593 in Wilmington, England near The Long Man of Wilmington.

This Faery appears in Sandman # 19, on page 8, in panel 2. He is on the left, with his hands around his knees.

Max did an awesome job with this Faery. I love the pattern used for the background, which was made from tape and then painted. It gives the Faery a recesses look and adds a level of contrast to the character. The colors on the Faery are deep and beautiful. This is a great portrait!!!
