"Father and Daughter" by Jenny Dolfen

SF&F Picture 8 out of 25 by Jenny Dolfen

SciFi and Fantasy Art Father and Daughter by Jenny Dolfen

Corellon Larethian, the Elven God, with his daughter Eilistraee, who is banished from the High Elven pantheon for her (inadvertent) role in the uprising led by her mother Auraushnee (more commonly known as Lolth). Corellon doesn't want to banish her, but she insists, thinking that the drow will need a good deity they can turn to.

This pic was inspired by the short story 'With Silver and Tears' by Suzene Campos.

Photoshop over pencil shading.

22 Jan 2006	Anna 'Jokergirl' Holub	Loading... I like this a lot, especially the gold in his clothes and the silvery effect on her hair. Wonderful coloring, may I ask what medium you used? The pose is wonderful too, although the hands of the characters are a bit small... but can't argue about style ^^; Anyway, kudos on the great pic!
2 Mar 2006	Me, who else?	Loading... to comment persondownthestreet: yes lolth (or arushanee) was indeed corellons lover before she betrayed him in search of greater power, she was cast to the demonweb pits with her comrades. the drow elves later called upon the traitor godess to win the fifth crown war, but was discovered and cursed as an punishment. Elistraee kept with her mother as she thought that the drow needed a light to turn to in the darkness that the drow pantheon engulfed them in. to comment the artist: awesome work this is how corellon is supposed to look may i ask about the background? Jenny Dolfen replies: "The background? A basic one. "
10 Mar 2006	Widelec	Loading... uuuf I have never seen elf painted like that. I try on myself but... on opposite to you - it was terrible! I hope that you won't stop- it will be the end of the Elfwood... :*
20 Jul 2006	Kristin A. Erickson	Loading... The detail on this picture is amazing. I love your techniques and style. I love the drow. She is very beautiful, and I love his robe.
12 Mar 2007	Anonymous	Loading... and also to prince.... they were dark but not BLACK .. they were changed by the elves thru corellion's Magic. the drow anyways.. i guess it never really says if Lloth was that dark or not only that he changed her into a drider and sent her to the demon pits..
12 Mar 2007	Anonymous	Loading... just to add she isn't even really banished Arvandor is still her home plane according to the new books.. don't know if it used to be different or not though. she has 2 home planes now though. great pics enjoying them all. =-)
25 Dec 2008	ConnorElzaim	Loading... I keep coming back to this picture. It is lovely in all the ways that grabs my attention, the anatomy, the line work, the colourscheme, the emotions. Then there’s the fact that I’m totally all for the forgotten realms setting....its just sad 4.0 so totally tears apart the pantheon or that(soiler alert) she died at all in the efforts of saving the drow...
26 Jul 2009	Joanna kroeker	Loading... the startling contrast of her blue eyes to her black skin and white hair is so exotic and beautiful. It’s amazing!
14 Oct 2009	Awhitecracker	Loading... Looks like one daddy elf likes him some licorice ladies!!
2 Nov 2009	Nobody Special	Loading... what does the star in the corner mean.... wonders absently oh well I LOVE THIS PIC!!!!!!
